It is helpful to write them in different ways
some ways to write them are
1.fractions
2.decimals
3.squareroots (if applicable)
so it would be more helpful in an equation to leave 6/7 in fractional form if you are going to manipulate it more, because 0.857142857142... is much harder to keep track of than 6/7
and sometimes, they want a percent which is easier to convert to from decimal form than from fractinoal form so ex 0.857142857142...=85.7% vs 6/7 to percent
sometimes there will be square roots and they are easier if left like that ex
√2=1.4142135623...
it would be easier to leav it in square root
it depends on the equation you are trying to solve, because different forms have different pros and cons, some are easier to work with in a certain form but not in another, sometimes, you will need to change between multipule forms during the same problem
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What is the answer tho
Answer:
1 1/11 times greater
Step-by-step explanation:
When we are looking for how man time greater, we know we have to divide
36/33
Each number can be divided by 3
12/11
We can change this to a mixed number
1 1/11 times greater
Answer:
1. Her time in minutes is 720/s minutes
2. Given her time to be 20 minutes, her speed is 36 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Mathematically,
Distance = speed * time
In this question, we want to calculate time;
So time = distance/speed
times = 12 miles/s mph = 12/s hours
Now we want our answer in minutes
Kindly recall that 60 minutes = 1 hour
So 12/s hours will be 12/s * 60 = 720/s minutes
2. Since she drives from home to the office in in 20 minutes, we want to calculate her speed in mph
From the time calculated above i.e 720/s
We can equate 20 = 720/s
20s = 720
s = 720/20
s = 36 mph
Answer:
A.
, because probability values cannot be greater than 1.
C. -1.5, because probability values cannot be less than 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the extent to which an event is likely to happen. It ranges from 0(impossible) to 1(certain). Probability values can be written in decimal form or in fractional form.
The following numbers could not be used to represent the probability of an event.
A.
, because probability values cannot be greater than 1.
C. -1.5, because probability values cannot be less than 0.
