If George is 33 1/3% richer than Pete, than Pete is what percent poorer than George?
OleMash [197]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

George is 33\frac{1}{3}% (\frac{100}{3}%) richer than Pete. Let Pete's percentage of wealth be 100%.

Thus George percentage of wealth = 100% + \frac{100}{3}%

                                                           = \frac{400}{3}%

                                                           = 133\frac{1}{3}%

Pete's percent poorer than George can be determined by;

                                                           = (\frac{100}{3}) ÷ (\frac{400}{3} ) × 100

                                                           = (\frac{100}{3}) × \frac{3}{400} ×100

                                                           = 0.25 × 100

                                                           = 25%

Pete is 25% poorer than George.

How old would someone be if they were born on the 30th october 1992 ????
alexdok [17]
Today is March, 19th 2016
so from 1992 have been: 2016 - 1992 = 24 years
but the date is from October 30th, so we are not at 24 years just yet, we are at 23 years and the months and days since last 30th October, that is:
November + December + January + February = 4 months
and some days more, 19 days because today is 19th, so the total is:
23 years, 4 months, 19 days

How do i round 186.282?
adoni [48]

Well, first you need to decide what place you want to round it TO.

Example:  Round it to the nearest hundredth:

The next larger hundredth is  186.29 .
The next smaller hundredth is  186.28 .
Now look at it.
186.282  is closer to  186.28  than it is to  186.29 .
So the nearest hundredth is  186.28 .

-- When  186.282  is rounded to the nearest hundredth, it becomes  186.28 .

Similarly . . .
-- When  186.282  is rounded to the nearest tenth, it becomes  186.3 .
-- When  186.282  is rounded to the nearest whole number, it becomes  186 .
-- When  186.282  is rounded to the nearest ten, it becomes  190 .
-- When  186.282  is rounded to the nearest hundred, it becomes  200 .
-- When  186.282  is rounded to the nearest thousand or anything larger,
                                                                                       it becomes  zero.

I'm curious . . . where did this number come from ?

It happens to be one thousandth of the speed of light, in miles per hour.

Did it come up in science class, or did a science geek use it for
one of the problems in math ?
