Mathematics

Reduce 35/100 to 7/20 by dividing both sides by 5.

2/5 is bigger than 7/20.

2/5 > 7/20  or 2/5 > 35/100 if you leave it unsimplified

Hope this helps :)

Remark

The first thing to do is to find the value of each fraction in decimal form. Then you can compare them.

Solution

You can get these numbers using your calculator.

2/5 = 0.40 Your calculator may say it is 0.4, but you should add the zero so that the two factions can be compared.

35/100 = 0.35

Now which one is bigger? Think money. Which would you rather have: 40 cents or 35 cents? You should answer 40 cents.

Since 40 >  35

Therefore 0.40> 0.35

And 2/5 > 35/100

Find the product -a2 b2 c2 (a+b-c)
mina [271]
Use the distributive property:
a(c+b)=ab+ac
And
a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\a=a^1

-a^2b^2c^2(a+b-c)=-a^2ab^2c^2-a^2b^2bc^2+a^2b^2c^2c=-a^3b^2c^2-a^2b^3c^2+a^2b^2c^3

if a 42.9ft tall flagpole casts a 253.1ft long shadow then how long is the shadow that a 6.2ft tall woman casts?
vovangra [49]
Set up a proportion.
flagpole/shadow = woman/her shadow.

f/s1 = w/s2
f = 42.9
s1 = 253 
w = 6.2 
s2 = ??? = x

42.9/253 = 6.2 / x
42.9 x = 253*6.2
42.9 x = 1568.6
x = 1568.6 / 42.9
x = 36.56 The womans shadow is 36.56 feet long <<<< ===== answer.

My sister needs some help with her homework. Can someone lend her a hand?
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

600 = 10 x 60

Step-by-step explanation:

If you do 10 x 60 or 60 x 10 it'll equal 600, that's what the questons is looking for so the way it'd be written is:

6 hundreds is 10 times as much as 600.

600 = 10 x 60

Hopefully this helps! I hope you and your sister have a blessed day!
