Answer:

Number of Model A press = 9 and Number of Model B press = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of books Model A can print per day = 70

Number of books Model B can print per day = 55

Let x be the number of Model A press and y be that of Model B press.

Total number of printing presses = 14

x + y = 14  ----------------1

Total number of books printed per day = 905

70x + 55y = 905-------2

Putting y = 14 - x in equation 2, we get:

70x + 55(14 - x) = 905

15x = 135

x = 9

y = 14 - 9 = 5

Hence number of Model A press is 9 and that of Model B press is 5.

Let's focus on 0.7*0.8 for now. 

Start by drawing a large square. Cut this figure into 10 rows and 10 columns. So this means you'll have 10*10 = 100 little squares. 

Now highlight the first 7 rows. Shade in all 70 squares (7*10 = 70)
Starting on the left side, highlight the first 8 columns. You'll shade in 80 squares (8*10 = 80)

Use different colors for your highlighting or somehow indicate different shading styles. This way you can see the overlapping region. The overlapping region consists of 56 squares (7 rows, 8 columns ---> 7*8 = 56 little squares)

Each little square represents 0.01, so having 56 of them means we have 0.56

This shows that 0.7*0.8 = 0.56

-----------------------------------------------------------

How is this different if we had 1.7*0.8? Well we can break 1.7 into 1+0.7 to have

1.7*0.8 = (1+0.7)*0.8
1.7*0.8 = (1)*0.8+(0.7)*0.8
1.7*0.8 = (1*0.8)+(0.7*0.8)

The portion (0.7*0.8) was done earlier. That result was 0.56. So we just need to compute (1*0.8), which is simply 0.8; recall that 1 times any number is that number itself.

Now simply add 0.8 to 0.56 to get 1.36

So, 1.7*0.8 = 1.36
