Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 4 people be A, B, C and D. If each of them shakes hands with another person exactly one time then that means

A shakes with B, C and D. So 3 handshakes

B already shakes with A. So B shakes with C and D. 2 handshakes

C already shakes with A and B. So C shakes with D only. 1 handshake.

D already shake hand with all above.

Total handshakes: 3 + 2 + 1 = 6

What is 7.69/43.685=?<br> including long division <br> I'll give brainliest.
Minchanka [31]

Question

what is 7.69/43.685=?

Answer:

The Correct Answer is 5.6 :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Change the divisor 7.69 to a whole number by moving the decimal point 2 places to the right. Then move the decimal point in the dividend the same, 2 places to the right.

We then have the equations:

4368.5 ÷ 769 = 5.6

and therefore:

43.685 ÷ 7.69 = 5.6

Both calculated to 1 decimal places.
