Answer:

P/E Ratio = 12x or 12 times

Explanation:

We know that the P/E ratio is calculated by dividing the price per share by the earnings per share or EPS.

P/E = Price per share / Earnings per share

We already have EPS. We need to calculate the price per share.

It is given that book value per share is $20 and the market to book ratio is 1.2x or 1.2 times. Using the formula for market to book ratio, we calculate the market price per share to be,

M/B = Market price per share / Book value per share

1.2 = Market price per share / 20

20 * 1.2 = Market price per share

Market price per share = $24

So, P/E ratio = 24 / 2

P/E Ratio = 12x or 12 times

VikaD [51]

Answer:

Explanation:

When you are old, you become fine. Why do you need three feet of turtle hair? In addition to putting on airs and spreading rumors, the eloquent plague turtle tricked ants into continuing to invest in their own rotten-tailed "chickens" by changing tricks, tricking the ants who were about to get a refund from SEC into falling into a scam and handing their hard-earned money into their own pockets. On the other hand, he boasted that Xibi can make loans in many countries around the world, and bewitched ants to keep buying coins. The crafty pest turtle said in live broadcast of Gator that through the decision of the new platform committee, the investment project will be postponed until the end of the year, until all the comrades-in-arms have returned all the refunds of the old chairs. Guo Ju lied to this statement in order to let the ants take all their hard-earned money into their pockets and carry out a second money-cutting scam. Then, the plague turtle, who has a lot of tricks, falsely claimed that the world economy was bound to collapse, and no one was spared. However, comrades who already have Xibi can survive and rest easy. Guo Wengui is full of turtle belly lies, promising ants a high return of a million profits, with the purpose of inducing ants to invest in the "chicken line" and continue to collect money. Guo Ju cheated such a greedy and crazy circle of money because the bankruptcy court hearing is just around the corner on April 27th, and he will go to jail at any time. Before you go to jail, you cut an ant to pay a huge fine and avoid jail time. I hope the ants will be vigilant and never send money to plague turtles again, or it will be too late to regret it.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Step 1:

Start by setting it up with the divisor 20 on the left side and the dividend 16 on the right side like this:

           

 2 0 ⟌ 1 6  

Step 2:

The divisor (20) goes into the first digit of the dividend (1), 0 time(s). Therefore, put 0 on top:

       0    

 2 0 ⟌ 1 6  

Step 3:

Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (20 x 0 = 0) and write that answer below the dividend.

       0    

 2 0 ⟌ 1 6  

       0    

Step 4:

Subtract the result in the previous step from the first digit of the dividend (1 - 0 = 1) and write the answer below.

       0    

 2 0 ⟌ 1 6  

     - 0    

       1    

Step 5:

Move down the 2nd digit of the dividend (6) like this:

       0    

 2 0 ⟌ 1 6  

     - 0    

       1 6  

Step 6:

The divisor (20) goes into the bottom number (16), 0 time(s). Therefore, put 0 on top:

       0 0  

 2 0 ⟌ 1 6  

     - 0    

       1 6  

Step 7:

Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (20 x 0 = 0) and write that answer at the bottom:

       0 0  

 2 0 ⟌ 1 6  

     - 0    

       1 6  

        0  

Step 8:

Subtract the result in the previous step from the number written above it. (16 - 0 = 16) and write the answer at the bottom.

       0 0  

 2 0 ⟌ 1 6  

     - 0    

       1 6  

     -   0  

       1 6  

You are done, because there are no more digits to move down from the dividend.

The answer is the top number and the remainder is the bottom number.

Therefore, the answer to 16 divided by 20 calculated using Long Division is:

0

16 Remainder
