Dividing is the action of slimming a number down to a smaller size. When you divide a whole number by a decimal less than 1 the quotient is greater than the whole number because the that is how many times the quotient is a part of the whole number. For instance, you divide 100 by 4, you will get a quotient of 25. There are 4 parts of 25 to be equal to 100.

I hope this helps you!

If a number is divided by a negative number will the outcome be positive?
Zielflug [23.3K]
That would depend...

-4 / -2 = 2........4 / 2 = 2 <== if the signs are the same
but
4 / -2 = -2.......-4 / 2 = -2 <== if the signs are different

 So basically, if the signs are the same, the result is positive and if the signs are different, the result is negative

La suma de 5 números consecutivos es 122 cuáles son esos números ?​
ra1l [238]

Answer:

1) 22.4

2) 23.4

3) 24.4

4) 25.4

5) 26.4

Step-by-step explanation:

La suma de 5 números consecutivos es 122 ¿cuáles son esos números?

5 números consecutivos se pueden representar como

1) = x

2) x + 1

3) x + 2

4) x + 3

5) x + 4

Por eso:

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) + (x + 4) = 122

x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4 = 122

5x +10 = 122

5x = 122 - 10

5 veces = 112

x = 112/5

x = 22.4

5 números consecutivos se pueden representar como

1) x = 22.4

2) x + 1 = 22.4 + 1 = 23.4

3) x + 2 = 22.4 + 2 = 24.4

4) x + 3 = 22.4 + 3 = 25.4

5) x + 4 = 22.4 + 4 = 26.4

Is 4 + 15x = 49 true? How do you know?
jekas [21]

Answer:

Yes it is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you go on and solve for x, you get 3. I got this by subtracting the 4 from both sides, then getting 15x=45. Then I divided both sides by 15 and got x=3. If you plug that in, you get 4+45=49. This proves to be true.
