If you're multiplying by 10, you're moving the decimal point to the right, the same with any multiplication in the 10's, so 100, 1,000, etc. This is because you are making the number 10 times larger, so if you had 3.4, the 4 is in the 1/10 column so multiplying by 10 would put it in the units column, making the number 34.
On the other hand, dividing by the 10's makes the decimal point move to the left because you are making the number 10 times smaller, so if the units column is worth 1, then 10 times less than that is 1/10, which is the first decimal place.
I hope this helps! I tried to explain it well but let me know if you still don't understand or if I've confused you in any way :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For each equation choose a value for x and then solve to find the corresponding y value that makes that equation true.
Given:
• Total number of cans collected = 150
,
• Percent of cans that were soda = 58%
Let's find the number of other cans he collected.
To find the number of other cans, since the percent of soda is 58%, let's find the pecent of other cans.
Percent of other cans = 100% - 58% = 42%
The percent of other cans collected was 42%.
Now, to find the number of other cans collected, let's find 42% of the total number of cans collected 150.
We have:

Therefore, the number of other cans collected is 63 cans.
ANSWER:
63 cans
Answer:
42°
Step-by-step explanation:
Since all the angles in the figure add up to 180°...
180 - 54 = 126
3x = 126°
x = 126 ÷ 3 = 42
