6 x 1/4 = 1 2/4 = 1 1/2
14 x 1/8 = 1 6/8 = 1 3/4

Russ' tomatoes weigh more because 3/4 is more than 1/2.

Which of the following statements is true?

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/9 can be simplified to 1/3 as 1/3 x 1/3 = 1/9 and 49/25 can be simplified to 7/5 as 7/5 x 7/5 = 49/25.

Now looking at both the fraction 1/3 and 7/5

1/3 simplifies to 0.34

It is an irrational value as the 3 keeps repeating.

7/5 simplifies to 1.4

It is a rational value as the decimal value is not repeating.

Thus making the second option the answer.

8.46 If 100 is decreased by a% and the result is decreased by b%, then what is the total percent decrease (in terms of a and b)?

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

The total percent decrease is $a+b-\frac{a b}{100}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with a word problem
We are asked to find the total percentage decrease
We can do this in two steps

Step 1: Finding the two percentage decrease

Step 2: Finding their difference

Step 1 of 2

Let the decrease by a% be 100-a

Then b% decrease is

$\begin{aligned}\frac{b}{100} \times(100-a) &=\frac{100 b-a b}{100} \\\frac{100 b}{100}-\frac{a b}{100} &=b-\frac{a b}{100}\end{aligned}$

Step 2 of 2

The percentage difference between the two percentages is,

$\begin{aligned}&(100-a)-\left(b-\frac{a b}{100}\right)=100-a-b+\frac{a b}{100} \\&100-a-b+\frac{a b}{100}=100-\left(a+b-\frac{a b}{100}\right)\end{aligned}$

Since 100 is the total percent $a+b-\frac{a b}{100}$ is the percentage decrease.
