Work=speed times time (my equation to help me figure it out)
ok, 10 men take 84 days to complete a job
therefor, each man completes 1/10 of the job in 84 days
each man does 1/840 of the job per 1 day
so, if we had 5 more, or 15 men
15 times 1/840 times xdays=1 job complete
15/840 times xdays=1job
times both sides by 840/15
xdays=840/15
xdays=56
56 days it would take
Answer:
It will be worth 16k in 10 years
Step-by-step explanation:
divide 20k by 100
1% = 200 dollars
200 x 8 gives you 1.6k
1.6k x 10 = 16k
0.016 as a fraction is 16/1000 and in simplest form it is 2/125.
An easy way to figure out the fraction of a decimal is by the decimal places. As we can see, there are four numbers in our decimal (0.016).
The first decimal place = ones
The second decimal place = tenths
The third decimal place = hundredths
The fourth decimal place = thousandths
We stop at the thousandths place, so basically, take 16 and put it over 1000, which looks like 16/1000.
