as we move down the list as we push the *digits* to the *left*through the decimal *point* *each* *number has been 10*. and so we can easily *multiply* or divide by *a* power of *10* because of our system of positional numeration. Each Place belongs to the next power of *10*.
The answer would be 20 because you have 5 blocks that are cut into 1/4. It doesn't say anything about any of the pieces disappearing or being used yet so you multiply 4*5 and then you get the answer.
Multiply total students by the percentage:
600 x 80% = 600 x 0.80 = 480
480 students want more field trips.
4x+2x^2+3x-2x+7
First, you would combine like terms. In this case, you would add 4x and 3x then subtract 2x.
2x^2+5x+7
5x^2-2x+3+4x-2x^2
Once again, you must combine like terms. Subtract 2x^2 from 5x^2, then subtract 2x from 4x.
3x^2+2x+3
There you go! Hope it helps

The rule for division by a fraction is "change to multiplication by the reciprocal." So you want(4/3)(12) which is 4(4) = 16
