Correct Solution: He read 1.5 pages per minute.
Error Analysis: You should’ve divided 3 by 2 not 300. There are 300 pages in the book total. This information is irrelevant to the question. Cole reads 3 pages in two minutes. So you divide 3 by to to find out how many pages he reads per minute. 3/2=1.5
Answer:
48.16
Step-by-step explanation:
X= base
one side= x-6
other side= 4+x
x+x-6+4+x = 43
3x=43+2
x=15 length of base
Answer:
t > 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
350 - 25 = 325
325 / 65 = 5
It said to reach over 350 miles, so it’s greater than 5
t > 5
Okay, here we go.
With simpler decimals, this is a bit easier so I'll explain that first to make sure you get the basic idea.
Let's say you had a decimal for .75 and wanted to create the fraction mathematically. To do this you would:
First divide the decimal by 1 so .75/1
Then multiply be a multiple of 10 that eliminates the decimal so in this case 100
so you now have 75/100
When you simplify that fraction by dividing by 25, you of course get 3/4
Now on to your more complicated question:
Let's assign a variable to your repeating decimal so:
x=.1515151515
Now, let's identify the repeating digits, here they are .15
Move one set of the repeating digits in front of the decimal so now we get:
100x=15.1515151515
Now you have two equations, they are:
x=.1515151515
100x=15.1515151515
Combine the equations into one equation:
100x-x=15.1515151515-.1515151515
99x=15
15/99
simplify and you get 5/33
