To answer the question above, first, just multiply directly the numbers. 
                                 3.278 x 4.23 = 13.86594

The rule for the significant figures for multiplication of two or more numbers is that the number of significant figures of the product should be equal to the least number of significant figures of the factors. From the given above, the first factor has 4 significant figures and the second only has 3. Therefore, the product should only have 3 significant figures. The answer is letter B. 13.9

Let us first multiply the numbers that are given in the question.
3.278 x 4.23 = 13.86594.
Now comes the important part of finding the correct answer. The first number has four significant figures and the second number has three significant figures. The result or the product of these two numbers should have three significant figures. The answer will then be 13.9. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is option "B".

A group of tourists spends $156 to rent snorkels and fins. A total of 15 snorkels and 18 pairs of fins are rented. Renting a sno
Bas_tet [7]
You could use many methods to find the answer to this problem, but I am going to use the most efficient one I know.
18f+15(4f)=156
F is for fins. We should now solve the equation.
18f+60f=156
78f=156
156÷78=2
So fins cost 2 dollars. Now, we know snorkels cost four times the amount of fins. Four times 2 is eight. So the snorkels cost $8 to rent. Let's check our math.
15(8) + 18(2)
120+36=156
So it cost $8 to rent a snorkel.

65=91/?<br> What is the question mark
trapecia [35]
I would write the missing variable as x. It's what everyone uses.
Anyway, 91 divided by x is 65.
The way we can do this is reverse 65 and x.
91 divided by 65 = x.

91 divided by 1.4 = 65
65 x 1.4 = 91

x (or ?) = 1.4

What is 5/8 divided by 1/4
Llana [10]

Answer:

Exact form: 5/2

Decimal form: 2.5

Mixed number form: 2 and 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

when you divide a fraction you keep, change, flip

Equation: 5/8 ÷ 1/4

keep 5/8 the same

change the divide symbol into a multipulcation symbol

flip 1/4 the other way, so it's 4/1 (it's a whole number now)

then just multiply across

Equation now: 5/8 × 4/1
