Answer:

1. Multiply the fraction by 5/5 to get a denominator of 100 and then write the numerator as hundredths using a decimal point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Renaldo must use a method that does not alter the value of the original fraction. This means that by multiplying the fraction by a number, the result obtained remains the same as the initial number.

Then the fraction \frac{3}{20} must be multiplied by the same number in the denominator and the numerator. For example:

\frac{3}{20}*\frac{5}{5}

\frac{3}{20}*\frac{33}{33}

If we multiply \frac{3}{20}*\frac{5}{5} the result is:

\frac{15}{100} To write this fraction in decimal form, we move the comma 2 digits to the left in the following way:

15.0 --------> 0.15.

Then \frac{15}{100}=\frac{3}{20}=0,15

The answer is Option 1.

ANSWER

1. Multiply the fraction by 5/5 to get a denominator of 100 and then write the numerator as hundredths using a decimal point.

EXPLANATION

Renaldo wants to write

\frac{3}{20}

as a decimal.

He needs a denominator of 100, so he can multiply by

\frac{5}{5}

to obtain:

\frac{3}{20}  =  \frac{3 \times 5}{20 \times 5}

This will be

=  \frac{15}{100}

He can now obtain the decimal equivalent as

= 0.15

The correct choice is option 1.

raketka [301]

Answer:

n = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(n+9)=15

Distribute -3 to (n+9):

-3n - 27 = 15

Add 27 to both sides:

-3n = 42

Divide both sides by -3:

n = -14
