A = p(1 + rt)
A/p = 1 + rt
rt = A/p - 1
t = (A/p - 1)/r
to change any decimal to a fraction, we simply <u>use as many zeros on the denominator as there are decimals and lose the dot</u>.
1.18 has two decimals, so we'll use two zeros at the bottom, and lose the dot.
The
temperature which has best degree of precision would actually be the
temperature reading which has similar decimal place with the error. So the best
answer would have 1 decimal and from the choices given above, this would be:
16.0°C

To do it without a calculator:
10% of 67 is 6.7
6.7 x 8 is 53.6 (80%)
1% of 67 is .67
53.6 - .67 is 52.93 (79%)
