What exactly do you need help with
The cost for six pencils would be a total of 150p
The reason why is if three pencils cost 75p and you want to know what the cost of six, since three is half of six you would do this (if 3=75p then 3*2=75p*2 which is 6=150p). As shown, you multiply each side by 2 or double each side
Option B
5 hundredths is not the way to express 0.50
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Given that Three of the choices are ways to express 0.50
To find: wrong option
Let us first write 0.50 in different ways
<h3><em><u>
To convert a Decimal to a Fraction follow these steps:
</u></em></h3>
Step 1: Write down the decimal divided by 1, like this: decimal 1.
Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point. ...
Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the fraction.
means 50 hundredths
<h3>Therefore option D is correct</h3>
On simplifying we can write,
means one half
<h3>Therefore option A (one half) is correct</h3>
Similarly, \frac{5}{10} means 5 tenths
<h3>Therefore Option C is also correct</h3>
Thus the wrong option is B
<em><u>Justification:</u></em>
5 hundredths can be written as:
Therefore option B is wrong
