If angel bought 8 oranges, and he knows they are 50 cents, then you can multiply 8 by 0.50 to determine how much he spent only on oranges:
8 x 0.50 = 4.00

Then, you should subtract that value from the total that he spent, to see how much was spent on apples:
15.22 - 4 = 11.22

Finally, because you know Angel bought 11 apples, divide the remaining amount he spent by 11 to determine how much each apple was:
11.22 / 11 = 1.02

So, yes, Angel's guess was reasonable, because $1.02 is, indeed, a little more than $1.00
Hope this helps :)

Estimate the quotients 1.64÷22
Nadya [2.5K]

ANSWER

0.1

EXPLANATION

We want to estimate the quotient of 1.64 ÷ 22.

To do this, we will approximate the two numbers to whole number and solve it.

It becomes:

2 ÷ 20

That is:

Note: since 2 cannot be divided by 20, we write 0. and add a 0 to the back of 2.

The estimate of the quotient is 0.1.

There are 4 empty seats and 76 occupied seats in a train. What percentage of the seats on the train are empty?
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

fraction empty = empty / total

                                = 4/ (76+4)

                                 = 4/80

                                  =1/20

Changing to a percent

1/2 *5/5 = 5/100 = 5%

How do I find the measurements to these angles?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

How do I find the measure of an angle?

Using a Protractor

The best way to measure an angle is to use a protractor. To do this, you'll start by lining up one ray along the 0-degree line on the protractor. Then, line up the vertex with the midpoint of the protractor. Follow the second ray to determine the angle's measurement to the nearest degree.
