42 of the 150 employees at Carlo's Car Repair wear contact lenses. What percent of the employees wear contact lenses?
antiseptic1488 [7]
\frac{42}{150} ÷ 2 = \frac{21}{75}

\frac{21}{75} ÷ 3 = \frac{7}{25}

\frac{42}{150}= \frac{7}{25}

Then, divide 7 by 25 because 25 is the divisor

7 ÷ 25 = 0.28

28% is the answer (:

A typical snake bite delivers 0.0045 grams of venom. Maria and Tammy were asked to write this number in scientific notation. The
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Maria

Step-by-step explanation:

A typical snake bite delivers 0.0045 grams of venom.

Maria wrote it in scientific notation as 4.5\times 10^{-3}

Tammy wrote it in scientific notation as 4.5\times 10^{3}

Any number can be written in the form of scientific notation as follows :

N=a\times 10^b (a is real no and b is integer)

The given no is 0.0045.

There are 2 zeroes before 4. Also the decimal is there before 2 zeroes.

0.0045=\dfrac{45}{10000}\\\\=\dfrac{45}{10}\times \dfrac{1}{1000}\\\\=4.5\times 10^{-3}

Hence, Maria is correct.
