7) Write the decimal number as a fraction
(over 1)
2.18 = 2.18 / 1
Multiplying by 1 to eliminate 3 decimal places
we multiply top and bottom by 3 10's
Numerator (N)
N = 2.18 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 2180
Denominator (D)
D = 1 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 1000
N / D = 2180 / 1000
Simplifying our fraction
= 2180/1000
= 109/50
= 2 9/50

The <em><u>correct answers</u></em> are:
60 pounds of onion rings and 60 hamburgers.
Explanation:
Jack serves a half pound of onion rings with every burger. He serves 120 bacon cheeseburgers. To find the number of pounds of onion rings, we multiply 1/2 pound by 120 burgers:
1/2(120) = 1/2(120/1) = (1*120)/(2*1) = 120/2 = 60 pounds of onion rings.
There were 8 hamburgers served out of the first 40 orders. If this rate continues, then to find the number of hamburgers out of 300 orders, we multiply 8/40 by 300:
8/40(300) = 8/40(300/1) = (8*300)/(40*1) = 2400/40 = 60
There would be 60 hamburgers.
1) 50 × 2 = 100
2) 60×20= 1200
3) 70×20=1400
Hope this helps
