Answer:
53/100
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we convert the fraction to a decimal number by dividing the numerator by the denominator:
8 / 15 = 0.533
There are two parts to the decimal number above:
Integer Part: 0
Fractional Part: 533
Now, we will make the Fractional Part just two digits (nearest hundredth) by using our rounding rules.*
In this case, Rule I applies, so 8/15 (or 0.533) rounded to the nearest hundredth in decimal format is:
0.53
Next, we will make 8/15 rounded to the nearest hundredth in fraction format. Since you can divide our decimal format answer above by 1 and keep the same value, you can make it like this:
0.53 = 0.53/1
Then, we multiply the numerator and denominator by 100 to get rid of the decimal point:
(0.53 x 100) / (1 x 100) = 53/100
That's it. 8/15 rounded to the nearest hundredth is displayed below (simplified if necessary):
53/100
Yes....because a terminating decimal can be turned into a fraction, making it rational
Answer:
this makes no sense
Step-by-step explanation:
I got 16.8 , but she’ll need roughly 17 gallons of paint :)
how i did it :
1. so you know she’ll need 4/5 per book case, and there are 16 bookcases.
2. So you do 16 x 5, then you get 84
3. and you divide 84 by 5. and you’ll get 16.8, that’s how many gallons of paint she needs
