Answer:

The decimal equivalent of 34/5 is 6.8. It is a terminating decimal.

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction will have a terminating decimal representation if its denominator is some product of powers of 2 and powers of 5. Here, the denominator is 5, so the decimal fraction will terminate.

34/5 = 68/10 = 6.8 . . . . . this is a terminating decimal value

_____

If the denominator has any other factor (other than 2 or 5), the decimal representation will repeat. The length of the repeat may be up to n-1 digits, where n is the factor of the denominator that remains after powers of 2 and 5 have been removed. For example, the decimal representation of 1/7 has a 6-digit repeat; 1/19 has an 18-digit repeating decimal representation.

Solve the inequality

AnnyKZ [126]

Since it's an inequality, there's no exact answer
To solve the inequality do this:
1.) Isolate the m by dividing each side of the inequality by 6
$(6m \leq 6)/6$
2.) That's it!!
