Decimal : 1.5
Percent : 150%
Answer:
slope = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (0-4)/(0-2)
= -4/-2
= 2
Let's focus on 0.7*0.8 for now.
Start by drawing a large square. Cut this figure into 10 rows and 10 columns. So this means you'll have 10*10 = 100 little squares.
Now highlight the first 7 rows. Shade in all 70 squares (7*10 = 70)
Starting on the left side, highlight the first 8 columns. You'll shade in 80 squares (8*10 = 80)
Use different colors for your highlighting or somehow indicate different shading styles. This way you can see the overlapping region. The overlapping region consists of 56 squares (7 rows, 8 columns ---> 7*8 = 56 little squares)
Each little square represents 0.01, so having 56 of them means we have 0.56
This shows that 0.7*0.8 = 0.56
-----------------------------------------------------------
How is this different if we had 1.7*0.8? Well we can break 1.7 into 1+0.7 to have
1.7*0.8 = (1+0.7)*0.8
1.7*0.8 = (1)*0.8+(0.7)*0.8
1.7*0.8 = (1*0.8)+(0.7*0.8)
The portion (0.7*0.8) was done earlier. That result was 0.56. So we just need to compute (1*0.8), which is simply 0.8; recall that 1 times any number is that number itself.
Now simply add 0.8 to 0.56 to get 1.36
So, 1.7*0.8 = 1.36
Answer:
1/16
Step-by-step explanation:
In the starting, Corrine had 1/4 gallon of blackberries. Now, she poured the berries equally into 4 containers. Therefore, the amount of berries in each container is:1/4 : 4=1/16
Thus, each container has 1/16 of a gallon of blackberries.
