Because that way you can find the answer when you are given a large amount of information and you don't have to guess until you get the answer right.
4/25
Step-by-step explanation:
16/100, 8/50, 4/25
Answer:
when solving for multiplication
for instance
2*2=4
2+2=4
4+2=8
as 2*4,=8 after 4 you can add 2 to get the next multiple of 2
Same goes to the rest of other multiplication tables
Let's say that the weight of the orange is x and the weight of the pineapple is y.
The weight of the pineapple is 7 times that of the orange, so
y = 7x.
Also, y = x + 870.
Therefore, 7x = x + 870.
If we take away x from both sides, we get 6x = 870
If we divide both sides by 6, we get x = 145.
Therefore, the weight of the orange is 145 g.
Also, 145 + 870 = 1015.
So the weight of the pineapple is 1015 g.
To convert grams into kilograms, they must be divided by 1000.
Therefore, the weight of the orange in kilograms is 145/1000 = 0.145 kg
And the weight of the pineapple is 1015/1000 = 1.015 kg.
Answers:
a. 145g for the orange and 1015g for the pineapple.
b. 0.145kg for the orange and 1.015kg for the pineapple.
