Answer:
Irrational
Step-by-step explanation:
The square root of 2 is an irrational number as it is: ≈ 1.41. When you divide the square root of 2 by 3, it's still irrational: 0.47140452...
So they had 17 left over and one Apple was cut into 8 slices. 8 goes into 17 2 times with one left over. So it would be 2 whole apples with 1 slice left over. So 17 slices converts to 2 wholes and 1 part (slice)
Exponents can make the problem smaller and look less confusing. If you see a problem with 5*5*5*5*5*5*5*5 then you're going to eventually loose count and will have to keep repeating. But if you put 5 to the 8th power then you know right away just to multiply 5, (8) times,
Answer:
3 1/2 gallons of paint
Step-by-step explanation:
1 5/8 - 5/6 = x
Turn the mixed number into an improper fraction:
1 5/8 = 13/8 = x
13/8 - 5/6 = x
make the denominator the same:
13/8 * 3 = 104/24
5/6 * 4 = 20/24
Subtract:
104/24 - 20/24 = 84/24
Simplify:
84/24 divided by 6 = 14/4
14/4 divided by 2 = 7/2
Turn into a mixed number:
3 1/2
