"of" means multiply
So 65% * 40
65% is the same as 0.65 (% means divide by 100).
0.65 * 40 = 26
26 games

When you divide with negative exponents, you divide the rational numbers like normal and then you add the exponents.
Doss [256]

Answer:

the same as multiplying them, except you're doing the opposite: subtracting where you would have added and dividing where you would have multiplied. If the bases are the same, subtract the exponents. Remember to flip the exponent and make it positive, if needed.

Find the point, M, that divides segment AB into a ratio of 5:2 if A is at (1, 2) and B is at (8, 16).
d1i1m1o1n [39]
Since M divides segment AB into a ratio of 5:2, we can say that M is 5/(5+2) of the length of AB. Therefore 5/7 × AB.
distance of AB = d
5/7×(x2 - x1) for the x and 5/7×(y2 - y1) for the y
5/7×(8 - 1) = 5/7 (7) = 5 for the x
and 5/7×(16 - 2) = 5/7 (14) = 10 for the y
But remember the line AB starts at A (1, 2),
so add 1 to the x: 5+1 = 6
and add 2 to the y: 10+2 = 12
Therefore the point M lies exactly at...
A) (6, 12)
