So it's 2.40 subtract 2, which is 0.4

then put it over 2, you get 0.4/2, which is equal to 0.2

0.2= 20% so it's 20% of increase

Kaylis [27]

The number that equals 280 tenths + 19 thousandths is 28.019

<h3>How to determine the number?</h3>

The statement is given as:

280 tenths + 19 thousandths

Rewrite the terms of the expression as fractions

Evaluate the quotients

28.0 + 0.019

Add both numbers

28.019

Hence, the number that equals 280 tenths + 19 thousandths is 28.019

Give a counterexample for the statement: 'All square roots are irrational numbers'. Explain your reasoning.
galben [10]

For a number to be irrational, it can't be expressed in fractional form.  However, 3 can be expressed in fractional form as 3/1.
