Answer: 5.36*10^2\ feet

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, the "Difference" is the result of a subtraction.

It is important to remember that Scientific Notation is in the following form:

a*10^b

Where "a" is a number between 1 and 10 ( but not including 10) and "b" is an Integer.

In this case, according to the information given in the exercise, you know that the Petronas towers are 1,483 feet tall and the Key tower is 947 feet tall.

Then, the diffrence between the heights  of those towers can be find by subtracting them. So, this is:

1,483\ feet-947\ feet =536\ feet

In order to write the difference calculated above in Scientific notation, the Decimal point must be after the first digit; then you must move the Decimal point two places to the left. Therefore, you get that this is:

=5.36*10^2\ feet

Georgina ran 3/8 mile in 3 minutes. How many miles does she run per minute?
Pachacha [2.7K]
In the given question we can see that the information,Georgina ran a distance of 3/8 mile in 3 minutes is already provided.
So
In 3 minutes Georgina can run a distance of = 3/8 miles
Then In 1 minute Georgina can run a distance of = 3/(8 * 3) miles
                                                                               = 3/24 miles
                                                                               = 1/8 miles.
So it can be said now that in 1 minute the distance that Georgina can cover is 1/8 miles. If required it can be converted to decimal value as well.

Multply both sides of the equation by 7.

\dfrac{x}{7}\cdot 7=\dfrac{4}{5}\cdot 7\\\\x=\dfrac{28}{5}=5.6

_____

When the variable is in the numerator of a proportion like this, you can solve it by multiplying by that denominator. That multiplication cancels the denominator and gives you the value of the variable.

In general, you multiply by the reciprocal of the coefficient of x. When that coefficient is 1/7, you multiply by 7/1. Of course, you know that 7/7 = 1 and that x/1 = x.
