What are the steps to solve this problem 0.000027 divided by 0.00000.9 in scientific notation explain
nirvana33 [79]
Please double-check the original problem.  0.00000.9 is bad form (because of your having two periods in it).

If you wish to divide 0.000027 by <span>0.000009, you could rewrite both numbers in scientific notation and then perform the division:

2.7E(-5)         </span>27E(-6)<span>
------------ =  ---------------- = 3
 9E(-6)             9E(-6)</span>

What is the relationship between the ratios?
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

NOT PROPORTIONAL

Step-by-step explanation:

The given two fractions are: $ \frac{5}{8} $ and $ \frac{8}{10} $.

Proportional fractions are those which have the same value when to reduced to the simplest form.

Consider two fractions $ \frac{p}{q} $ and $ \frac{x}{y} $.

We say they are proportional if $ p : q = x : y $.

Or, if $ py = qx $ then we can say the fractions are proportional.

Here the fractions are:  $ \frac{5}{8} $ and $ \frac{8}{10} $.

LHS: 5 X 10 = 50.

RHS: 8 X 8 = 64.

Clearly they are not equal. So, we can say these two fractions are not proportional.

The total operating cost for the truck is $400 000 per year. The percentage breakdown of this total amount was: 40%: Fixed costs
Viktor [21]
To find this, you have to find the specific cost of each service.
40% fixed costs: 400000 x 0.4 = 160000$
30% fuel: 400000 x 0.3 = 120000$
20% finance: 400000 x 0.2 = 80000$
and 10% maintenance: 400000 x 0.1 = 40000$
So the price was originally $1.50 (for fuel). This means that 120000$ was spent on fuel. Doing the math, it's 120000/1.50 = <span>80000 liters of fuel. So at the new price, the cost of all 80k liters would be 80000 x 1.60 = 128000. That's a 8000 increase in price, so the total cost is now $408000.</span>
