Let x be the unknown number. One fifth of this number is x/5, one fourth of this number is x/4. So, we have

\dfrac{x}{4}-\dfrac{x}{5} = \dfrac{5x-4x}{20} = \dfrac{x}{20}

We know that this difference equals 9, so we have

\dfrac{x}{20}=9

Multiply both sides by 20 to get

x=180

What is the product of 0.51 × 0.24?<br><br> 0.1224<br> 1.124<br> 11.24<br> 1124
natima [27]
0.52 x 0.24 means "about a half times 0.24". Given the multiple choice answers, the correct answer is therefore 0.1224 (since this is the only one smaller than 0.24).

Proof:
0.50 × 0.24 = 0.12
0.01 × 0.24 = 0.0024
And therefore 0.51 × 0.24 = 0.12 + 0.0024 = 0.1224
