Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the opposite of a number is the same number with the opposite sign. For example, the opposite of -1 is 1.

So, say we have an equation where we're subtracting a number, for example, 2-1, which obviously equals 1. Now, if we add the opposite of 1 to 2, we get the equation 2+(-1) which still equals 1.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

10. ○ $\displaystyle 4,85; 4\frac{17}{20}$

9. ○680%

8. ○40%

7. ○ $\displaystyle 60$

6. ○0,4, 40,5%, 11⁄25, 4⁄9

5. ○ $\displaystyle 0,928$

4. ○1%

3. ○76%

2. $\displaystyle See\:above\:grid$

1. $\displaystyle See\:above\:grid$

Step-by-step explanation:

10. To convert from a percentage to a decimal, move the decimal mark twice to the left; each 20 is worth 5, and since 5 by 17 is 85, you have your fractional part of 17⁄20, then attach the whole number of 4.

9. To convert from a mixed number\improper fraction to a percentage, first evaluate the fractional part for a decimal answer, then move the decimal mark twice to the right.

8. To convert from a fraction to a percentage, evaluate the fraction for a decimal answer, then move the decimal mark twice to the right.

7. $\displaystyle \frac{132}{220} = \frac{3}{5} =$ 60%
