How do I figure out what 1/10 of 6000 is?

alisha [4.7K]

The way I like to figure out problems like this is to write it out like,

1/10 = x/6000
(One over ten equals x over 6000)

Then you find out how much you multiplied 10 by to get 6000. To do this you can divide 6000 by 10 getting 600. The rule "what you do to the bottom you have to do to top" in this equation. So since you multiplied the bottom by 600 you have to multiply the top by 600 as well. 600 times 1 is just 600.

So your answer is, 600 is 1/10 of 6000.

Hope this helps and isn't too confusing.

Geri believed the answer to one of her homework problems was 2 cubed. After checking her work, she realized the correct answer w

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 64 times Geri’s original answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Gari's Answer: 2³

Correct Answer: 2⁹

Required:

Relationship between both answers

Let Gari's answer be represented by G and the Correct answer be represented by C; Such that

G = 2³

C = 2⁹

Divide C by G

$\frac{C}{G} = \frac{2^9}{2^3}$

From law of indices, $\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n}$

Applying this law, we have

$\frac{C}{G} = 2^{9-3}$

$\frac{C}{G} = 2^{6}$

$\frac{C}{G} = 2*2*2*2*2*2$

$\frac{C}{G} = 64$

Multiply both sides by G

$G * \frac{C}{G} = 64 * G$

$C = 64G$

Hence, we can conclude that the correct answer is 64 times Geri’s original answer
