Meters is the most likely to be used
You need to know and have memorized metric unit conversions. They are easy, you just need to know how many zeros to add.
1 cm = 10 mm
1 m = 1000 mm
1 m = 100 cm
1 km = 1000 m
(1.) 4m + 3cm = 400cm + 3cm = 403cm
(2.) 3km + 8m = 3000m + 8m = 3008m
(3.) 7cm + 9mm = 70mm + 9mm = 79mm
(4.) 1m + 5cm = 100cm + 5cm = 105cm
(5.) 5km + 5m = 5000m + 5m = 5005m
Do you see that to switch 5km to smaller unit meters you just add the zeros on to the end. Because 1km = 1000m ; 5km = 5000m
You try the rest. let me know if you have any questions.
Answer:
Friday: 300 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Omar's pay on Friday = x
Friday: x
Saturday: 1/4 x was spent.
Sunday: 2/3 *(x - (1/4)x ) = 2/3 * (3/4x) = (2*3/(3*4)x = (6/12)x = 1/2x
Dinner: 15 dollars
Remainder = 20% x = 20/100 x = 0.2x
x - (1/4x + 1/2(x) + 15) = 0.2x Combine like terms on the left
x - (3/4x + 15) = 0.2x Remove the brackets
x - (3/4)x - 15 = 0.2x Combine like terms on the left
(1/4)x - 15 = 0.2x Change 1/4 to a decimal
0.25x - 15 = 0.2x Subtract 0.25x from both sides
0.25x - 0.25x - 15 = 0.2x - 0.25x Combine
- 15 = - 0.05x Divide by - 0.05
-15 /-0.05 = - 0.05 x/ 0.05
300 = x
