Answer:
So any time you are multiplying something, you are making "groups of"
so 3 groups of 2 = 6, 4 groups of 3 = 12
But with decimals or fractions, because they are a value less than zero, the numbers become increasingly small instead of bigger, like standard multiplication.
So for example, 1 group of 1/2 = 1/2
2 groups of 1/4 = 1/2
and so on
hope this helps!
Answer:
The digit '0' is in the ones place.
Let's say that y is the weight of the mother and x is the weight of the baby.
We know that the baby is 7437 pounds less than the mother, which means you need to add 7437 pounds to the baby's weight to get the mother's.
We can show it like this:
x+7437=y.
We know what the baby's weight is (1400 lbs), so just sub it in:
1400+7437=y
y=8837 lbs
The mom weighs 8837 pounds.
This is how I solved it.
2.5 multiplied by 3 is 7.5, which equals how many she takes a day.
Then I multiplied 7.5 by 10 = 75. I did that because the meds are taken for 10 days.
Also if you added 7.5 ten times is also 75.
So my final answer is that 75 tablets have been taken in total.
