7 0

The answer is as follows:
1/5
0.35
12/25
0.5
4/5

Just for a bit of explanation, 1/5 is equal to 0.2, 12/25 is just barely under 0.5, 4/5 is equal to 0.8.
I hope this helps!

One way is to make them all decimals or all fractions:

.5 .2 .35 .48 .80 are the numbers above changed to decimals.
I will make them the same length (two digit past the decimal point) to compare
.50 .20 .35 .48 and .80

Now it is easy to put them in order

.2 .35 .48 .5 and .80

Let's put them into all fractions

5/10 1/5 35/100 12/25 and 4/5

Instead of finding a common denominator let's try this:
Think of them as test scores - the person who got 1 out 5 did the worst
Next came the person who got only 35 out of 100 - they only did better than the one above (1/5)
12/25 is almost 1/2 but a little below half the questions right
5/10 is exactly half the questions right (so it is bigger than 12/25 by a little).
4/5 is the best score (and the only one who passed).
So 1/5, 35/100, 12/25, .5 and 4/5 are in order least to greatest and match the answer above in bold.

You are asked to choose a vowel (a, e, i, o, u) from a list, and then to choose either the number 6 or 7. How many possible outc

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

10 possible outcomes

S = {a6, a7, e6, e7, i6, i7, o6, o7, u6, u7}

Step-by-step explanation:

As there are 5 vowels and 2 numbers that have to be chosen, the total outcomes are

= 5x2 = 10

Each vowel can be chosen with 6 or with 7

Let S be the sample space

a vowel will be chosen first then there is possibility that either the number chosen with it is either 6 or 7 so each vowel will have two possible outcomes with the number

S = {a6, a7, e6, e7, i6, i7, o6, o7, u6, u7} ..

To get the echo of a positive integer, we write it twice in a row without a space. For example, the echo of 2022 is 20222022. Is

The <em>echo</em> number 20222022202220222022 is the <em>perfect</em> square of 4496890281.

<h3>What echo number is a perfect square</h3>

An <em>echo</em> number has a <em>perfect</em> square if its square root is also a <em>natural</em> number. After some iterations we found that <em>echo</em> number 20222022202220222022 is a <em>perfect</em> square:

$\sqrt{20222022202220222022} = 4496890281$
