Answer:
The repeating decimal cost
a) As a fraction = $
b) As a mixed number = $
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of making a computer component
= $3.161616
= $ 3 + 0.161616
Looking at the repeating decimal it is in 6 decimal places, hence to convert it to a fraction,
0.161616/ 1000000 × 1000000
= 161616/1000000
Therefore, the cost of making the computer component =
$3 + $161616/1000000
Step 1
We convert to a fraction
$3 + $161616/1000000
We find the LCM = 1000000
($3 × 1000000)+ ($161616× 1)/1000000
3000000 + 161616/1000000
= $ (3161616/1000000)
As a Mixed number =
Options:
Who is right, and why?
a. Neither Kurt nor Maria is right, because 3,500 should be used instead of 3,600.
b. Kurt is right, because finding 1/5 of 3,600 is not a good way to approximate 21% of 3,585.
c. Maria is right, because finding 10% of 3,600 and multiplying the result by 2 is not a good way to approximate 21% of 3,585.
d. Both Kurt and Maria are right, because 3,585 should be rounded up to 3,600, and 21% of this amount can be approximated by either finding 10% of 3,600 and multiplying the result by 2 or by finding 1/5 of 3,600.
Answer:
d. Both Kurt and Maria are right, because 3,585 should be rounded up to 3,600, and 21% of this amount can be approximated by either finding 10% of 3,600 and multiplying the result by 2 or by finding 1/5 of 3,600.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required [Missing from the question]
Who is correct and why?
First, we calculate the actual amount collected.
--- approximate
Next, determine the estimate (round 3585 to 3600 and 21% to 20%)
Next, calculate Kurt and Maria's estimates
<em>Hence, Kurt and Maria are correct because of option (d)</em>
