Mathematics

Answer:

  1000

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of a digit in a number, set all the other digits to zero.

The value of 7 in 7042 is 7000.

The value of 7 in 427 is 007 = 7.

Then the question is "how many times larger is 7000 than 7?" That result is found by dividing 7000 by 7:

  7000/7 = 1000

The 7 in 7042 is 1000 times larger than the 7 in 427.

_____

<em>Another way to consider this</em>

The 7 in 7042 is in the "thousands" place. The 7 in 427 is in the "ones" place. The thousands place is 3 places to the left of the ones place. Each place moved to the left increases the value by a factor of 10, so the value of a digit in the thousands place is 10×10×10 = 1000 times that of the same digit in the ones place.

Ulleksa [173]
The answer would be -3/2

A reciprocal is the inverse of a number.
When using this in fractions just switch the numerator and denominator. This is done by dividing the fraction by one, but in the case of a negative fraction you would divide by negative 1.

In a survey, 205 people indicated they prefer cats, 160 indicated they prefer dots, and 40 indicated they don’t enjoy either pet
maw [93]

Answer: probability =  0.506

Step-by-step explanation:

The data we have is:

Total people: 205 + 160 + 40 = 405

prefer cats: 205

prefer dogs: 160

neither: 40

The probability that a person chosen at random prefers cats is equal to the number of people that prefer cats divided the total number of people:

p = 205/405 = 0.506

in percent form, this is 50.6%
