You put it over it’s number place so since .5 is in the tenths place you put it over 10
So it would be 2 5/10 after simplifying you get 2 1/2

Hmm, this is a breddy simple one, I'll use your provided number as an example.
2.5
you immediately can separate the whole numbers to make for 0.5, which is five tenths, or 5/10, which can be simplified to one half, and if you want a mixed number you stop there, giving you
2 \frac{1}{2}
but you can multiply your whole number by the denominator (bottom part), and recieve
\frac{5}{2}
these two are identical numbers, just written differently

hopefully I helped :DDDD

Ollie earns a fixed amount of $2,700 per month and a commission of 12% on all of his sales for the month. To cover all of his ex
storchak [24]

Answer:

Part A) 0.12x+2,700\geq 5,400

Part B) see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Write an inequality that will represent the amount of sales Ollie will need in order to cover his monthly expenses

Let

x ----> the amount of sales monthly

Remember that

12\%=12/100=0.12

we know that

The fixed amount of $2,700 plus the commission of 12% on all of his sales for the month must be greater than or equal to $5,400

so

The inequality that represent this problem is

0.12x+2,700\geq 5,400

Part B) Find the solution and describe what the graph would look like on a number line

we have

0.12x+2,700\geq 5,400

Solve for x

subtract 2,700 both sides

0.12x \geq 5,400-2,700\\0.12x \geq 2,700

Divide by 0.12 both sides

x\geq \$22,500

The minimum amount of sales needed to cover his monthly expenses is $22,500

In a number line the solution is the shaded area at right of x=22,500 (closed circle)

see the attached figure to better understand the problem
