Why does dividing 5 by a decimal less than 1 give a quotient greater than 5

1 answer:

5 0

If you divide by a decimal, you are breaking apart 1 into multiple pieces and so you are trying to find how many of that size piece will fit into 5. For example if you divide by .5 (point five), there are 2 point fives in 1 so there are 10 point fives in 5. The quotient is larger.

I hope you got that...

Answer:

2x +21

Step-by-step explanation:

$log_{5} {5}^{(2x - 9)} + log_{3} {729}^{5} \\ \\ = log_{5} {5}^{(2x - 9)} + log_{3} {( {3}^{6} )}^{5} \\ \\ = log_{5} {5}^{(2x - 9)} + log_{3} { {3}}^{6 \times 5} \\ \\ = log_{5} {5}^{(2x - 9)} + log_{3} { {3}}^{30} \\ \\ =(2x - 9) log_{5} {5} + 30 log_{3} { {3}} \\ \\ = (2x - 9).1 + 30(1 )\\ ( \because \: log_{a} { {a}} = 1) \\ \\ = 2x - 9 + 30 \\ \\ = 2x +21$

21 3/16...as a decimal
the 21 is a whole number and goes to the left of the decimal....and the fraction 3/16 goes to the right of the decimal.
3/16 = 0.1875....now add ur 21 and u get 21.1875 inches wide

2 3/8....as a decimal
3/8 = 0.375....now put ur 2 in there and it becomes 2.375 inches thick
