1cm = 10mm
then 0.46cm = 0.46*10 = 4.6mm
The answer is <span>one halfn − 16
</span>
Let the number be n.
<span>One half of a number is (1/2n)
</span><span>decreased by 16 is (-16)
</span><span>one half of a number decreased by 16 is
1/2n - 16
Or </span><span>one halfn − 16</span>
The answer is -4.5
To solve these types of problems it's best to work backwards.
-2 - 16 = -18
4 x (n) = -18
n = -18/4
n = -4.5
