How is simplifying similar to division?

Mathematics

Simplifying is similar to division because simplification use division in order to get smaller (or 'simpler') terms in a given fraction. To do that, numerator and denominator are divided by the greatest common factor. For example, 4/10 can be simplified to 2/5, dividing 4 and 10 by 2.

When you simpilfy a fraction you make it smaller. When you divide a number you make it smaller.

Ex: 5 /5 1
_ = _
10 /5 2

Bumek [7]
1.5 year is also 17 months. so 4060-3125=935 which equals 10 months, then 935÷10=93.5 which gives us the monthly dues. Then 93.5×7=654.5 which gives us the total of monthly dues for 7 months without the intuition fee. Then 3125-654.5=2470.5 that gives us the intuition fee.

what is the example of a product that will have the same number of zeros in the factors and the products? what is one example of
Natalka [10]

Answer:

  • same: 30×40 = 1200
  • different: 20×50 = 1000

Step-by-step explanation:

Same: 30×40 = 1200 . . . . . 2 zeros in the factors; 2 in the product

Different: 20×50 = 1000 . . . 2 zeros in the factors; 3 in the product

__

Same: 0.3×0.4 = 0.12 . . . . no zeros in the factors; no zeros in the product

Different: 0.2×0.4 = 0.08 . . . no zeros in the factors; 1 zero in the product after the decimal point

_____

For a product, the number of zeros will be different if the combined factors of the numbers increase the number of factors of 10 beyond the sum of the factors of 10 of the numbers being multiplied.

<u>Example</u>: neither 2 nor 5 has a factor of 10, but their product does.

__

For a product that is a decimal fraction, the number of leading zeros will increase if the product of the mantissas of the numbers is less than 10. The number of trailing zeros will increase under the conditions discussed above. (0.25×0.4 = 0.100)

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Here, the term "mantissa" is used to refer to the portion of the number written in scientific notation that multiplies the power of 10.

The random variable X is exponentially distributed, where X represents the time it takes for a person to choose a birthday gift.
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The probability that X is less than 32 minutes is 0.736.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The random variable X is exponentially distributed, where X represents the time it takes for a person to choose a birthday gift. If X has an average value of 24 minutes.

To find : What is the probability that X is less than 32 minutes?

Solution :

If X has an average value of 24 minutes.

i.e. \lambda=24

The random variable X is exponentially distributed, where X represents the time it takes for a person to choose a birthday gift.

The exponentially function is \frac{1}{\lambda}e^{-\frac{x}{\lambda}}

The function form according to question is

f(x)=\{\frac{1}{24}e^{-\frac{x}{24}}, x>0\}

The probability that X is less than 32 minutes is

P[x

P[x

P[x

Therefore, the probability that X is less than 32 minutes is 0.736.

What’s a constant Proportionality
irina1246 [14]
In mathematics, two variables areproportional if there is always aconstant ratio between them. Theconstant is called the coefficient ofproportionality or proportionality constant. ... x and y are directlyproportional if the ratio yx is constant.

In other words, the constant of proportionality is also the slope, **m**, rate of change, etc.
