The first step is to assign the decimal number to a variable.
For the repeating fraction 0.111_1, this would look like
.. x = 0.111_1 . . . . . . . . . . where we use an underscore to identify the following digit(s) as repeating
The next step is to multiply that value by 10 to a power equal to the number of repeating digits. If there is one repeating digit (as here), then you want (10^1)x = 10x.
.. 10x = 1.111_1
The third step is to subtract x from this.
.. 10x -x = 1.111_1 -0.111_1 = 1
.. 9x = 1
And the final step is to divide by the coefficient of x.
.. x = 1/9 . . . . . . this is the value of the repeating decimal fraction.
_____
Here's one that's a little more complicated. It is done the same way.
.. x = 3.254545_45
.. 100x = 325.454545_45
.. 100x -x = 99x = 322.2
.. x = 322.2/99 = 3222/990 = 179/55
It's very easy to divide 100 into a number because although it might be a decimal, there is no really difficult dividing going on.
100 goes into 247
2 times and then there is .47 remaining. This means 100 cannot be divided equally into this number but it will be a decimal.
Your answer would look like this:
2.47
Do 560 * .38 which is 212.8 or B, it could be C if you are rounding but 212.8 is the exact answer
1 gallon=16 cups
3 times 16=48
plus 14 mroe
48+14=62 cups total
Answer:
steve=65 mph
kevin=13 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
steve=s
kevin=k
s=5
k=1
1=5=6
390 divided by 6 equals s 65
divide further by 5 which equals k 13
