To round to the nearest cent, nearest penny, or nearest hundredth, you will need to locate the hundredths place. Then look at the digit to the right. If it is 5 or above, the number in the hundredths place will be increased by 1 and all the rest of the numbers after it are dropped. If the number is 4 or below, you leave the digit in the hundredths place alone and drop all the rest of the numbers after.
<span>Just remember, if the problem asks you to round to the nearest hundredth, make the end result look like money, meaning only two digits after the decimal point!</span>
3 7/12 = 43/12
2 7/9 = 25/9
both denominators must be the same to add together.
(25/9)x 12
(43/12) x 9
300/108 + 387/108 =
687/108
which in its simplest form is 229/36
and in a mixed number is 6 13/36
Answer:
Total taxes = $1,520
Step-by-step explanation:
We have two separate calculations for the taxes:
The tax rate for the first $5,000 of Clarisa's gross pay is 1%, so the amount of tax paid in this case is
1% * 5000 = $50
The tax rate for the amount of value over $5,000 (that is, 54,000 - 5,000 = 49,000) is 3%, so the amount of tax is:
3% * 49,000 = $1,470
So, the total amount deducted for state taxes is:
Total taxes = 50 + 1470 = $1,520

In order to solve this you make a porportion:
24/12=34/x
You do (34×12)÷24
34×12=408
408÷24=
