All you have to do is divide both numbers you have by 100
then multiply the two numbers you got together
15.8 and 0.15 (All you have to do is move the decimal over two spots to the right)

So 15.8x.15=2.37 and multiply this by 100 which gives you 273.

Then just subtract. 1580-273=1,343

So the answer is $1,343

In this subtraction, PR5T and 47Y6 represent 4-digit numbers. What number does PR5T represent?

Svetach [21]

Answer:

PR5T represents 6754.

P = 6

R = 7

T = 4

Y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us try to understand the subtraction starting from the unit's digit.

P R 5 T

- 4 7 Y 6

-----------------

1 9 9 8

To get 8, 6 should be subtracted from 14

14 - 6 = 8

So, T should be equal unit digit of 14 i.e. T = 4 and 1 should be carried over from the ten's digit of PR5T.

Now, let us move to ten's digit:

P R 5 4

- 4 7 Y 6

-----------------

1 9 9 8

To get 9, 6 should be subtracted from 15. But 1 is already carried to unit's place So, we have actually 14 here

14 - Y = 9

So, Y = 5

Moving to hundred's place:

R - carry - 7 = 9

Carry is 1, so R = unit's place of 9 + 8 i.e. R = 7

Moving to thousand's place:

P - carry - 4 = 1

Here carry is 1

So, P = 1 + 4 + 1 = 6

So, the number PR5T is 6754.

Jonas weight 63 pounds. jane weight 67 pounds. round each number to the nearest ten.

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Jonas = 60 pounds

Jane = 70 pounds

Remember- 5 or more, raise the score. 4 or less, let it rest.

Jonas is 63 pounds. 3 is less than 4, so rounded to the nearest ten would be 60 pounds.

Meanwhile, Jane is 67 pounds. 7 is more than 5, so we will raise the score.

So, 67 rounded to the nearest ten would be 70.

You have your answers. 60 and 70. Hope this helps!

James has 14{,}500\text { g}14,500 g14, comma, 500, start a text, space, g, end text of sand in his sandbox. He brings home anot

mariarad [96]

Question:

James has 14,500g of sand in his sandbox. He brings home another 7,400g of sand from the beach to add to his sandbox. How many kilograms of sand does James have in his sandbox now?

Answer:

The quantity of sandbox James has is 21.9kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Initial quantity of sandbox = 14,500 g

Additional quantity = 7,400 g

Required

Total quantity of sandbox in kg

Tp get the total quantity of sandbox, we simply add in the initial and additional quantity of sandbox together;

This is represented mathematically as follows;

Total = Initial Quantity + Additional Quantity

Total = 14,500 g + 7,400 g

Total = 21,900 g

But the question says the answer should be in kg

1000 g is equivalent to 1 kg

21,900 g will be equivalent to $\frac{21,900}{1,000} kg$

$21,900g = \frac{21,900}{1,000} kg$

$21,900g = 21.9 kg$

Hence, the quantity of sandbox James has is 21.9kg
