The answer is just -x/4 because you can divide a variable
Given:
October: 8 3/8 inches
September : 60% less rain fell than in October.
This means that only 40% rain fell in September based on the amount of rain that fell in October.
8 3/8 ⇒ (8*8)+3/8 = 67/8
40% is 4/10
67/8 * 4/10 = 268/80 = 3 28/80 or 3 7/20 or 3.35
28 ÷ 2 = 14
80 ÷ 2 = 40
14 ÷ 2 = 7
40 ÷ 2 = 20
In September 3 7/20 inches or 3.35 inches of rain fell.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) -5 +3 = -2
When two numbers are in different sign, subtract and the result will have the bigger numbers sign. The bigger number is 5. so the result is (-2)
2) -7 - 2 = -9
When two numbers have same sign, add and the result will have the common sign
3) 122 * (-9) = - 1098
4) -6 ÷ (3/4)

= -8

= 1000/10000 sq. meters = 1/10 sq. meters</span>
