Explain why it can be helpful to use partial quotients when dividing?

1 answer:

3 0

In mathematics, a quotient (from Latin: quotiens "how many times", pronounced ˈkwoʊʃənt) is the result of division. For example, when dividing 6 by 3, the quotient is 2, while 6 is called the dividend, and 3 the divisor.

aalyn [17]

Answer: the mass of a neutron is approximately 2,000 times the mass of an electron

Step-by-step explanation:

- the easiest way to solve this (in my opinion) is to simply divide the mass of a neutron by the mass of an electron

- $2 x10^{-24} / (9 x10^{-28} )$

= $(2/9) x10^{-24--28}$

= $(2/9)x10^{-24+28}$

≈ $0.2222x10^{28-24}$

≈ $0.2222x10^{4}$

≈ which is approximately 2222

- so 2222 is approximately 2000 times

- therefore, the mass of a neutron is approximately 2,000 times the mass of an electron

hope this helps :)

Sections of prefabricated fencing are each 4 1/3 feet long. how long are 6 1/2 sections placed end to end

zalisa [80]

we know that

$4\frac{1}{3}= \frac{(4*3+1)}{3} =\frac{13}{3}$

$6\frac{1}{2}= \frac{(6*2+1)}{2}=\frac{13}{2}$

To find how long are $6\frac{1}{2}$ sections placed end to end

Multiply the number of sections by the length of one section

$\frac{13}{2} *\frac{13}{3} =\frac{169}{6}\ ft$

$\frac{169}{6}\ ft =28\frac{1}{6}\ ft$

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

$28\frac{1}{6} \ ft$

Answer:

$0.30 + $0.03n > $0.02 + $0.02n

Step-by-step explanation:

company x = $0.30 + $0.03n

company y = $0.02 + $0.02n

$0.30 + $0.03n > $0.02 + $0.02n
