0.8 is 10 times as great as what decimal
kondor19780726 [428]
When we say that 2y is 2 times greater than y, this means that if we divide 2y by 2 we will get the y.

Similarly, to know the decimal that is less that 0.8 by 10 times, simply divide 0.8 by 10 as follows:
decimal = 0.8 / 10 = 0.08

This means that 0.8 is 10 times larger than 0.08

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The player with the most runs had a rush of 1,240 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the number of yards that was rushed by one of two person given their combined run and an extra information.

Firstly, let the person that had the smaller number of rush have a rush of x rushes. The second person has a rush of 4 times the other. This makes a number of 4x rushes

By adding both together, we have a total of 1550 yards

Mathematically, this means that x + 4x = 1550

5x = 1550

x = 1550/5 = 310 rushes

The second player had a rush of 4x and that is 4 * 310 = 1,240 rushes
