Answer: Option #4: the 0.2 could be changed to 2.
Explanation:
The table is designed to make the concept of percentages more understandable. The table first allocates the total amount of 70 in terms of its "fifths," or 20% parts. Then it expresses these parts in the last row of the table, showing that 20% of 70 is 14 and all the five parts sum up to 70 again.
Now, Mikel is supposed to express 40% of the amount. So she writes (incorrectly): 0.2 * 14. This statement needs to be changed to 2 * 14 (two times 14 = 28), to correspond to 2 times 20%, or 40% of 70.
This is reflected in the last (fourth) option "The 0.2 in the expression could be changed to 2."
Option #3 is incorrect because changing 14 to 70, will result in an incorrect number (2.8).
Options 1 and 2 are similarly incorrect (as can be easily verified)
Answer:
There is a 1/3 (or 0.33%) probability of rolling a number greater than or equal to 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find what numbers are greater than or equal to 5:
5 and 6
Find what options you can get on a number cube:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6
Out of the 6 possible outcomes, there are only 2 that will get a number greater than or equal to 5. Write this as a fraction:
2/6
Simplify:
1/3
Answer:
1. 50 * 1,000 = 50,000
2. 49,001 + 999 = 50,000
3. 5 * 10,000 = 50,000
4. 100,000/2 = 50,000
5. 20,000 + 30,000 = 50,000
6. 50,000/1 = 50,000
7. 90,000 - 40,000 = 50,000
8. 10 + 49,990 = 50,000
9. 5,000 * 10 = 50,000
10. 1,000,000/20 = 50,000
