The correct answer is "lesser than the whole number"
If you take for example 1/2 x 2 = 1.
This is because one half of 2 is 1, meaning the result is a number smaller than the whole number used.
Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. However, I inferred you are referring to the passage found in the book "Collections Close Reader: Grade 8."
<u>Explanation:</u>
Remember, a <u>simile</u> is a literary device that compares two things that exactly aren't similar or alike as though they were, in other to give a good description.
For a simile about the narrator: one good example is when read;
<em>"</em><em><u>Chatter like a monkey</u></em><em> when I command adult attention."</em> Here the author uses the expression "Chatterlike a monkey" to depict the talkative nature of the narrator when given attention, just as how a monkey makes noise.
For a simile about the mother: one good example is when read;
<em>"She rises </em><em><u>against the sun like a skyscraper,</u></em><em> and when I draw her in my notebook, she takes up the entire page." </em>The mother's bold and courageous nature is compared to the height of a<em><u> skyscraper.</u></em>
Drama or conflict???? .........
Answer:
1.Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon-light of hope to millions of negro slaves, who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity. But 100 years later, the negro still is not free. One hundred years later, the life of the negro is still sadly crippled by the manacle of segregation and the chains of discrimination.
this goes to show that they were still not treated equally
2.It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment. This sweltering summer of the negro's legitimate discontent will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality.Nineteen sixty-three is not an end but a beginning.
