Hey there!
When you see the decimal that looks like (0.3) this would be called a terminating decimal, which is a decimal that always have extra numbers at the end.
For example:
2.(3)
1.(67)
The number's that are in the parenthesis are the terminating numbers.
Hope this helps you!

In order to reduce ANY fraction to lowest terms, find any common factors
of the numerator and denominator, and divide them both by it. If they still
have a common factor, then divide them by it again. Eventually, they won't
have any common factor except ' 1 ', and then you'll know that the fraction is
in lowest terms.
Do 15 and 40 have any common factors ?
Let's see . . .
The factors of 15 are 1, 3, <em>5</em>, and 15 .
The factors of 40 are 1, 2, 4,<em> 5</em>, 8, 10, 20, and 40 .
Ah hah ! Do you see that ' <em>5</em> ' on both lists ? That's a common factor.
So 15/40 is NOT in lowest terms.
Divide the numerator and denominator both by 5 :
15 / 40 =<em> 3 / 8</em>
3 and 8 don't have any common factor except ' 1 '.
So 3/8 is the same number as 15/40, but in lowest terms.
Answer:
15 is 30% of 50
Step-by-step explanation:
We have, 30% × x = 15
Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 30,
we have x = 15 × 100/30
x = 50
If you are using a calculator, simply enter 15×100÷30, which will give you the answer.
Answer:
shipping and handling is <u>18.90</u> dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
percent means "per one hundred", so any percent can be written as a fraction over 100
30% = 30/100 = 0.30
Multiply 0.30 with the price 63 to get 0.30*63 = 18.90, which is the cost of shipping only. This result is added on top of the 63 dollars to get the total cost.
