Arturo will have 12 pieces. For this problem, you need to multiply by the reciprocal. To do that, you flip 1/3 over to 3/1 and multiply that by 4. 3/1 times 4 equals 12. Remember that 4 as a fraction is 4 over 1. So you would multiply 4 by the numerator (3) because 4 is the numerator in 4/1.

Given that √5 = 2.24 and √50= 7.07 , find <br> √500 and √0.5

sineoko [7]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

using the rules of radicals

$\sqrt{a}$ × $\sqrt{b}$ ⇔ $\sqrt{ab}$

$\sqrt{\frac{a}{b} }$ ⇔ $\frac{\sqrt{a} }{\sqrt{b} }$

then

$\sqrt{500}$

= $\sqrt{100(5)}$

= $\sqrt{100}$ × $\sqrt{5}$

= 10 × 2.24

= 22.4

-------------------------------

$\sqrt{0.5}$

= $\sqrt{\frac{50}{100} }$

= $\frac{\sqrt{50} }{\sqrt{100} }$

= $\frac{\sqrt{50} }{10}$

= $\frac{7.07}{10}$

= 0.707

Again one question not two

Anettt [7]

Answer: A) 5m = 50; m = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows 5 "m"s, or 5*m equal to 50. Thus, 5m=50.

Because 5m = 50, divide both sides by 5 to get that m = 10
