The correct answer to this is that 2.3 -20=-17.7 the answer is resonable because if you go on a number line then you would see that if you start a 2.3 and subtract 20 spaces you get to ----17.7

If 20-2.3=17.7, then if you add 17.7 to 2.3. it equals 20 which is called the communicative property because whatever you add or subtract, the answer is the same
17.7+2.3=2.3+17.7

If we have two similar triangles:
Triangle 1 (base 1 , height1).
Triangle 2 (base 2, height 2)
Then:

base 1 /height 1=base 2 /height 2

Data:
base 1=0.2 m
height 1= 1 m
base 2= 8 m
height 2=x

We calculate the height of the tower:
base 1 /height 1=base 2 /height 2
0.2 m / 1m=8 m / x
x=(8 m * 1 m) / 0.2 m
x=8 m²/0.2 m
x=40 m

Answer. the heigth of the tower will 40 m

If 4/5 of the population of a certain town is
kkurt [141]

Hi! I'm happy to help!

Our town is composed of 2,000 people. Of those 2,000 people, 4/5 of them are middle class. The word 'of' usually means multiplication when it is in a word problem. So, we will multiply 2,000 by 4/5. When multiplying a whole number, we just multiply it by the numerator (top) and leave the denominator. (bottom)

2,000×4

8,000

8,000/5

Fractions are just a different way of putting division, so we can change this to a division problem:

8,000÷5=

1,600

1,600 of the people are middle class.

I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D
