Answer:

Percentage error is 0.0024 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial average distance between Earth and moon = 384467 km  

Distance measure by the scientist = 384476 km

Total variation in the distance calculation = 384476 – 384467 = 9 km.

Now we can find the percentage by dividing the variation in distance from the initial measurement and then multiply with hundred.

Percentage error = ( 9 /  384467 ) × 100 = 0.0024 %

What is 12 divided by 6/7
Naddik [55]
What is the easiest way to divide whole numbers to fractions?
Just follow these two easy steps:
1. Multiply the whole number  to the denominator of the fraction. In other words, the bottom number of the fraction will be multiplied to the whole number, like this:

12 ÷ 6/7 = n
 <u>   6    </u>
7 x 12
You will have 6/ 84.
2. Simplify.
6  = 1, 2, 3, 6
84= 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 42, 84

the GCF is 6.  divide both numbers by 6, so the answer will be 1/14.

You can also get the reciprocal and proceed to multiplication , like this: (12/1 is the fractional form or the whole number 12.)
 1/12 x 6/7=n
that makes 6/84 or 1/14.
