I assume you mean one that is not rational, such as √2. In such a case, you make a reasonable estimate of it's position, and then label the point that you plot.
For example, you know that √2 is greater than 1 and less than 2, so put the point at about 1½ (actual value is about 1.4142).
For √3, you know the answer is still less than 4, but greater than √2. If both of those points are required to be plotted just make sure you put it in proper relation, otherwise about 1¾ is plenty good (actual value is about 1.7321).
If you are going to get into larger numbers, it's not a bad idea to just learn a few roots. Certainly 2, 3, and 5 (2.2361) and 10 (3.1623) shouldn't be too hard.
Then for a number like 20, which you can quickly workout is √4•√5 or 2√5, you could easily guess about 4½ (4.4721).
They're usually not really interested in your graphing skills on this sort of exercise. They just want you to demonstrate that you have a grasp of the magnitude of irrational numbers.
The LCD (least common denominator) is the lowest number that both denominators (12 and 5) go into. The lowest number that both 5 and 12 go into is 60. The LCD of the two fractions is 60.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
16 problems.
Step-by-step explanation:
100% divided by 20 questions.
100/20 is equal to 5, therefore each question is worth 5 points.
Grade of 80% divided by points per question.
80/5 is 16 so the student answered 16 questions correctly.
