Option B
5 hundredths is not the way to express 0.50
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Given that Three of the choices are ways to express 0.50
To find: wrong option
Let us first write 0.50 in different ways
<h3><em><u>
To convert a Decimal to a Fraction follow these steps:
</u></em></h3>
Step 1: Write down the decimal divided by 1, like this: decimal 1.
Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point. ...
Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the fraction.
means 50 hundredths
<h3>Therefore option D is correct</h3>
On simplifying we can write,
means one half
<h3>Therefore option A (one half) is correct</h3>
Similarly, \frac{5}{10} means 5 tenths
<h3>Therefore Option C is also correct</h3>
Thus the wrong option is B
<em><u>Justification:</u></em>
5 hundredths can be written as:
Therefore option B is wrong

Answer:
Answer:
6 days
210 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
As stipulated by the question, let the number of days Amir has been reading be x and the number of pages he had read to be y.
Now since he reads 35 pages per day.
Then mathematically;
y = 35x
For Jesse, He started reading a day before, this means that the number of days he had read would be x + 1. Since he reads 30 per day, the total number of pages he would have read is 30(x+1)
To find the number of days which is x, we have to assume that at a point in time, the number of books they would have read would be the same meaning that
Also; y = 30(x + 1)
Equating the two situations
35x = 30(x + 1)
35x = 30x + 30
35x -30x = 30
5x = 30
x = 30/5
x = 6 days
This means that it will take Amir 6 days to catch Jese.
The number of books they would have read by then is y = 35x = 30(x + 1)
= 35 * 6 or 30(6+1)
= 210
