Answer:

507,409

Step-by-step explanation:

if every 5 days the number quadruples (x4), and we want to know how many acorns fall after 30 days, we can divide 30 by 5 so we only have to calculate for the amount of time the take to quadruple.

30 ÷ 5 = 6

so we only have to quadruple the acorns 6 times.

if we start off with 124 acorns, this is what it will look like:

Day 0: 124 acorns

Day 5: 124 x 4 = 496 acorns

Day 10: 496 x 4 = 1984 acorns

Day 15: 1984 x 4 = 7936 acorns

etc... until day 30.

Day 30: 507904 acorns

I hope this was helpful :-)

Round 483 to the nearest ten

madam [21]

To round to the nearest ten, we will look at the number in the ones place, and determine if it is higher, lower, or equal to 5. In this case, 3 is less than 5, so we round down. This means that 483 rounded to the nearest ten is 480. :) I hope this helps you in the future! A common phrase you can think about is:
Four or less, give it a rest. 5 and above, give it a shove.

Alina [70]

Answer:

There are 32 ferrets, 112 rabbits and 16 dogs at the shelter.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 160 animals at the shelter. You know that of this amount of animals, $\frac{1}{5}$ are ferrets. So, the number of ferrets can be calculated by:

$\frac{1}{5}*160$

To multiply a fraction by a whole number, any integer n can be written as the fraction $\frac{n}{1}$ . Then you multiply the numerators and denominators. In this case:
