To determine this in a very fast and efficient way, divide the numerator by the denominator.
904 / 100 = 9.04
Now since we have our hundredths place as 4, divide 100 by 4 to find the fraction (0.04 is the rate).
100 / 4 = 25.
For every 0.04 we gain, we gain 1/25.
D.) 9 1/25 is your answer.

10% of 1800 is 180. If she payed 180 ten times it would be 1800 dollars. The computer is 180 dollars off. 1800-180= 1620. She pays $1620
Well first we need to do whatever is in the parentheses, which in this case is: (5x1/20)
Following the order of operations (PEMDAS) we start with the multiplication, which is (5x1). We know that 5x1=5, so now we can move on to the division:
5/20, which is equal to 0.25
So now that we know the answer to the equation in the parentheses is 0.25, we can solve the whole equation.
Here is the equation simplified:
4 (0.25)
Because there is now operation indicated between the 4 and the parentheses, we can assume that multiplication is implied, so the final equation is as follows:
4x0.25=1
The final answer is: 1
Hope this helps!
This question is all about dimensional analysis. The whole idea behind dimensional analysis is that you multiply a starting value with different conversion factors to cancel out units you don't want to tern the value into the units that you do want. The conversion for yards to feet can be written as 3 feet/yard (this is the conversion factor it can be written as 3feet/1yard or 1yard/3feet, it depends on what you are starting with). If you start out with yards and and want to go to feet you have to multiply the number of yards by 3feet/yard so that the yards cancel out leaving you with feet. If start out with feet and want to go to yards you divide the number of feet by 3feet/yard so that the feet cancel out and you are left with yards.
In your question Tom is trying to go from feet to yards. Therefore he has to divide the number of feet by 3feet/yard to get feet to cancel out. His mistake was that he multiplied by 3feet/yard instead of divide by 3feet/yard. The correct way do it is divide 379 feet by 3feet/yard to get 126.33 yards.
Let me know if anything is unclear to you in the comments. This is a very important skill to learn since this is the basis of many high school and college science classes.
