Answer:

... 0.7 . . . or 0.67 . . . or 0.667 . . . or 0.6667 . . . or ...

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 is a repeating decimal: 0.66666... Round where you like. The rounding is usually in the 2nd or 3rd decimal place, depending on the accuracy needed.

... 0.67 or 0.667 . . . . . the decimal fraction of dogs

_____

<em>Comment on wording</em>

The question asks for the "number of dogs". In the problem statement, we're told that number is 2 (out of 3). Actually, it can be any even integer number (out of 3/2 that many), up to 2/3 of the total dog population (which is estimated at over 520 million).

Had the problem asked for <em>the fraction of dogs</em>, then an appropriate answer is 0.67.

A 12 ounce can of store brand tomato paste costs $1.46 at a supermarket. The unit price of the sauce is listed on the shelf belo
kykrilka [37]
You can calculate it by divided but most of the people get confused about is it gonna be 12/1.46 or 1.46/12. The correct is 1.46/12 because take the money divided all 12 to get a unit price if you take 12/1.46 which mean divided all ounce can to money and that makes nonsense.


So 1.46/12 = $0.12 for each ounce can

You are a member of a darts team and they have won £1750 prize money in a competition. £70 is to be saved for a celebration part
grandymaker [24]
Most of the information's that are required for solving this question is already given in the question. It is important to check them minutely before trying to solve the problem in hand.
Amount of prize money won by the darts team = 1750 pounds
The amount of money that needs to be saved = 70 pounds
Then
Amount of money remaining after savings = (1750 - 70) pounds
                                                                     = 1680 pounds
The number of  team members in the darts team = 14
So
The amount of money
that each members of the darts team gets = 1680/14
                                                                     = 70 pounds
From the above deduction we can easily conclude that each member of the darts teams will get an amount of 70 pounds.
