- - You have: 60:80

Solve:

Divide each of these bight the HCD (20)

After that you get: 3:4

Now because you get the ratio of 3:4 it means than
1 second=3 words -Paul
1 second=4 words -Jennifer's

Paul does not compare to Jennifer. Jennifer is supreme.

nah but seriously a 60:80 when divided by 10 is 6:8. Divide that by 2 and its 3:4. Therefore Jennifer is 1/4 times faster or 20 words/per minute faster that Paul.

Round to the nearest given place. 1.80431 thousandths

rodikova [14]

In order to round a number to the nearest thousandths, we have to check the number in the ten thousandths place:
1- If the number in the ten thousandths is less than 5, then the thousandths number will remain the same and all numbers after it will be converted to zeroes.
2- If the number in the ten thousandths is equal to or greater than 5, then the thousandths number will be incremented by 1 and all numbers after it will be converted to zeroes.

Applying this to the given number:
1.80431
The number in the ten thousandths position is 3 which is less than 5.
Therefore, rounding 1.80431 to the nearest thousandths will be:
1.80400 which is equivalent to 1.804
