Answer:

The camper will use all 6 storage compartments, with 2 sleeping bags in the one that is not completely filled.

Step-by-step explanation:

If 6 storage compartments can each hold 3 sleeping bags, 18 (6*3) sleeping bags in total will be able to be stored.

We only have 17, which is one bag less than 18, so we can think of it as having one compartment with one bag less than all the others (they have three). Therefore, there are 2 sleeping bags in that storage compartment.

We can also divide 17 by 3 to find how many compartments will be filled. The remainder is the number of bags in the one that is not completely full.

17/3 = 5 r2

But because the camper still needs to put those two sleeping bags in a compartment, they will use 6.

for any fraction a/b, the decimal format of it is just a ÷ b.

A)

is the number rational?

well, a rational number is one we can write as a ration or fraction, well clearly is a fraction so it is rational.


B)

can it be written as a repeating/recurring decimal?  well, 9/20 is 0.45, so -9/20 is -0.45, no repeating decimal like 0.454545......... , just a plain vanilla -0.45, so nope.


C)

is it less than -0.4?

well, let's recall that for the negative side on the number line, the closer to 0, the larger the number, so then -1,000,000 is much smaller than -1, because -1 is closer to 0.

who is closer -0.4 or -0.45?

|---------------------  -0.45  --------  -0.40  -------------------  0  ---------------  1  -------------------|

so, -0.45 is farther from 0, and therefore is smaller than -0.4, so yes.
