They do not mean the same thing:
4 in 4000 stands for 4 thousands
4 in 400 stands for 4 hundreds.
You can see, that first '4' means 4 000, while the second one means 400, so the first one is 10 times greater.
To convert mixed number fractions you can:
→ Convert them into improper fractions
→ Give the fractions common denominators
→ Subtract the two numerators, keeping the denominator
→ If necessary, simplify and convert your fraction back to a mixed number fraction
Example: 3 5/6 - 1 2/3
→ 23/6 - 5/3
→ 23/6 - 10/6
→ 13/6 = 2 1/6
∴ 3 5/6 - 1 2/3 = 13/6 OR 2 1/6
Given:Painting priced at $600.
If paid using credit card and in installment basis.$600 x 16% = $96 interest on credit card balance$600 + $96 = $696 total debt$696 ÷ 12 months = $58 monthly payments
If paid using cash from cash advance.$600 x 5% discount = $30$600 - $30 = $570$570 x 32% = $182.40 interest on cash advance$570 + $182.40 = $752.40$752.40 ÷ 12 months = $62.70 monthly payment
It is cheaper for Paul to buy the painting using his credit card. He will only pay $58 per month on his credit card provider compared to the $62.70 monthly bill if he used cash advance.
Hope this helped☺☺
If the discriminant of a quadratic equation is equal to -8, there are two complex roots.
<h3>Discriminant of a quadratic equation</h3>
The discriminant is used to determine the nature of quadratic equations.
The formula for calculating discriminant is given as:
D = b^2 - 4ac
If the discriminant is negative, it means that the nature of the solution will be a complex number.
Hence if the discriminant of a quadratic equation is equal to -8, there are two complex roots.
