How many times greater is the value of 3 in 300 than the value of the 3 in 30

2 answers:

8 0

The value of 3 in 300 is three hundreds. The value of 3 in 30 is 3 tens.
Each time you move one place to the left in place value it is a multiple of ten...so

the 3 in 300 is ten times greater than the value of the 3 in 30.

(30 × 10 = 300)

3 0

Well it sounds like you mean smaller, not greater. 3/300 = 1/100 while 3/30 = 1/10. So 3 out of 300 is 10 times SMALLER than 3 out of 30.

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf 1 \ pound \ of \ dough = 1\frac{1}{5} \ cup \ of \ flour}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle \underline{Given \ that:}\\\\\frac{5}{8} \ pound \ of \ dough = \frac{3}{4} \ cup\ of \ flour\\\\Multiply \ 8 \ to \ both \ sides\\\\5 \ pounds \ of \ dough = \frac{3}{4} \times 8 \ cup \ of \ flour\\\\5 \ pounds \ of \ dough = 3 \times 2 \ cup \ of \ flour\\\\5 \ pounds \ of \ dough = 6 \ cups \ of \ flour\\\\Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ 5\\\\1 \ pound \ of \ dough = \frac{6}{5} \ cup \ of \ flour\\\\\boxed{1 \ pound \ of \ dough = 1\frac{1}{5} \ cup \ of \ flour}\\\\$
