Answer:
31 1/2, or answer D
Step-by-step explanation:
Because you have three countertops which all have an area of 10 1/2 meaning you multiply 10.5x3 getting 31.5
We need to identify what "the nearest cent" is.
So!
AB.CD
That is a representation of a number using variables, but we'll just say it's for place values.
A is in the Tens Place
B is in the Ones Place
C is in the Tenths Place (1/10)
D is in the Hundredths Place (1/100
Since we are talking about money let's put it in relation to a dollar.
A is in the Ten Dollar Place
B is in the One Dollar Place
C is in the Tenth of a Dollar Place (1/10 of a dollar)
D is in the Hundredth of a Dollar Place (1/100 of a dollar)
So, what is 1/10 of a dollar?
What amount of money times 10, would get you 1 dollar. Or you can think of it as if you had 10 of one value of money and you got a dollar what is that? A dime.
Now, what is 1/100 of a dollar?
What amount of money times 100, would get you 1 dollar. 1 cent (Or it is sometimes called a penny).
So that means any number beyond the 1/100 of a dollar point (D) will be rounded. If it's the first number after the 1/100 of a dollar is greater than (or equal to) 5 then we round the cent value up. If it is less than 5 we round down.
$29.4983
So, 9 is our cent place. 8 is greater than 5, so we round 9 up. (Add 1. Since it is 9 it will carry over into the 1/10 of a dollar place)
Our answer is:
$29.50
Answer:
They all look right but i'm not sure about the last one?
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>So lets see how does knowing that 5 divided by 8 = 0.625 helps us write the decimal for 4 5/8. First lets write 5 divided by 8 like a fraction: 5/8=0.625. Now we can see that 5/8 is in the number 4 5/8 so we can easily write it as: 4 + 0.625 = 4.625. So this is how it helps us. </span>
