We divide 60 by 2 as many times as possible to get 60 = 15 x 2 x 2. 2 is a prime number so we don't need to break the 2's down any more. Instead we break 15 down. 15 doesn't divide by 2 so we try the next prime number: 3 Divide 15 by 3 to get 15 = 5 x 3, and so 60 = 5 x 3 x 2 x 2.
Okay. So 3/5 in decimal form is 0.6. 7/10 in decimal form is 0.7. When you put them in order from least to greatest, the order would be 0.15, 3/5, 7/10, 0.85. Converting fractions to decimals and looking at the different places and what not could help make solving questions like these much easier.
Answer:
You can decide where to put the first digit because you know 153 doesn't fit into 6 or 61. But you know it can fit into 613. You put it there.
An
amusement park ride has a moving platform attached to four swinging arms. The
platform swings back and forth, higher and higher, until it goes over the top
and around in a circular motion. In the diagram below, AD and BC represent two of the swinging arms, and DC <span>is parallel to the ground
</span>(line l). Explain
why the moving platform AB <span>is always parallel to the ground.</span>
