How should the decimal point in 38.57 be moved to determine the product of 38.57 × 10,000?

Answer:

The decimal point should be moved to the right four times

Step-by-step explanation:

For quick multiplication with 10, 100s or 1000s, the decimal point in the original number is moved to the right the same number of times as the number of Zeros in the multiplying factor.

In this example, to calculate 38.57 × 10,000, the multiplying factor is 10,000 with 4 zeroes, hence the decimal point is moved to the right 4 times as shown;

original decimal 38.57

1st move: 385.7

2nd move: 3857.0 (Note that for every move beyond the last digit in the number, a zero is used to show every further point moved)

3rd move: 38570.0

4th move: 385700.0

hence 38.57 × 10,000 = 385700.0 or simply 385700.

Note also that for divisions, the same rule holds but instead of moving the decimal point to the right, it is moved to the left.

Please help me i dont know what the answer is ??
Assoli18 [71]
To answer this, we need to use the rules of geometric shapes. An equilateral triangle is equiangular, meaning all its angle measures are equal. Since all triangles' angles add up to 180°, simply divide 180 by three to find the angle measure of each angle:
\frac{180}{3} = 60
Therefore, the measure of the triangle's angle is 60°

Next, we know that a characteristic of a rectangle is that each angle must be a right angle, or an angle with a measure of 90°.

Now, all we have to do is use the sum of all the angle measures to figure out the missing piece:
90=x+60+12 \\ 90=x+72 \\ 90-72=(x+72)-72 \\ 18=x

The missing angle measure, angle x, equals 18°.

Hope this helps!

50 coins all dimes and quarters total is 10.25 how many dimes?
Yanka [14]

Answer:

You can do these "in your head" like this:

50 dimes would be $5.00

Each quarter adds 15 cents.

10.25 - 55.00 = $5.25 added

Step-by-step explanation:

525/15 = 35 quarters

--> 15 dimes

==========================

or,

d + q = 50

10d + 25q = 1025

etc
