Answer:

Error: He multiplied 6 by 5 + y instead of divided 6 by 5 + y

Correct solution: 6 ÷ (5 + y)

Step-by-step explanation:

- <em>Lets revise some words of some operations in mathematics</em>

# The sum ⇒ (+) Add

# The difference ⇒ (-) subtract

# The product ⇒ (×) multiply

# The quotient (answer of division) ⇒ (÷) divide

* <em>Lets solve the problem</em>

- Michael is trying to write the algebraic expression for the following

 word phrase:

 the quotient of 6 and the sum of 5 and y

- <u><em>Lets explain that:</em></u> the quotient means the answer of division so he

 wants to divide a quantity by another one

∵ The first quantity is 6

∵ The second quantity is the sum of 5 and y

- He wants to divide 6 by (5 + y)

∴ The expression is 6 ÷ (5 + y)

* Error: He multiplied 6 by 5 + y instead of divided 6 by 5 + y

* Correct solution: 6 ÷ (5 + y)

Please explain to me how 3.2÷4=0.8 is done
DedPeter [7]

To make it easier just assume there is no decimal point then just work out the 32÷4 where we know that 4 goes into 32 8 times so you get 8 remember the decimal point and since it was one decimal place you will push the decimal over to the left of 8 and that is how you get 0.8
