Question

Which number can each term of the equation be multiplied by to eliminate the decimals before solving?

Answer 1

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, to answer this question, you have to find the number/coefficient that has the most numbers after a decimal point (not including trailing zeros), and then use the rule 10^(numbers after the decimal point) to see how to eliminate the decimals. So, 2 digits, 10^2=100

Answer 2

Answer:

100 is the number which can be multiplied to eliminate the decimals....

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Which number can each term of the equation be multiplied by to eliminate the decimals before solving

5.6j – 0.12 = 4 + 1.1j

Solution:

Notice that the constants and the coefficients in this equation contains decimal. All the numbers are in decimal up to tenth place except 0.12 which has decimal up to hundredth place.

Therefore, if we want to eliminate the decimal from 0.12 we have to multiply it by 100.

Thus the given equation will be multiplied by 100 to eliminate decimal from the terms.

100(5.6j – 0.12 = 4 + 1.1j)

By multiplying the equation by 100 we get:

560j - 12 = 400 + 110j

Thus 100 is the number which can be multiplied to eliminate the decimals....
