Carlos says that 17.43 divided by 100 is the same as 174.3 times 0.01<br> Is he correct? Explain

Leokris [45]

Answer:

Is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find $17.43$ divided by $100$

$\frac{17.43}{100}=0.1743$

Step 2

Find $174.3$ times $0.01$

$174.3*0.01=\frac{174.3}{100}=1.743$

Compare

$0.1743\neq 1.743$

Why am this point be labeled with two names; 1 1/2 and 3/2

kakasveta [241]

3/2 is an improper fraction, where the denominator (bottom number) is smaller than the top (numerator)
1 1/2 is this same fraction but now it is not improper.
