3.006 rounded to the nearest tenth is 3.0. This is due to the fact that
the 6 rounded up will mean that the current 0 becomes 1, but this will
not be carried to the tenth when rounding up.
Answer:
<em>2/3 of the jar was filled with flour</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.
<em>A jar can hold 3/4 of a pound of flour. Austin empties 1/2 of a pound of flour into the jar. What fraction of the jar is filled? Enter your answer in numerical form.</em>
<em />
Given
<em>Amount a jar can hold a = 3/4 of a pound of flour</em>
<em />
<em>If Austin empties 1/2 of a pound of flour into the jar, then the amount emptied into the jar b = 1/2 pounds</em>
<em />
<em>Fraction of jar filled will be expressed as b/a as shown;</em>
<em>b/a = (1/2)/(3/4)</em>
<em>b/a = 1/2 ÷ 3/4</em>
<em>b/a = 1/2 * 4/3</em>
<em>b/a = 4/6</em>
<em>Simplify to the lowest term</em>
<em>a/b = 2*2/2*3</em>
<em>a/b = 2/3</em>
<em />
<em>Hence 2/3 of the jar was filled with flour</em>
I’m not 100% sure kind of a guess but I would x=2/3. Good luck
