How do I figure out what 1/10 of 6000 is?

1 answer:

The way I like to figure out problems like this is to write it out like,

1/10 = x/6000
(One over ten equals x over 6000)

Then you find out how much you multiplied 10 by to get 6000. To do this you can divide 6000 by 10 getting 600. The rule "what you do to the bottom you have to do to top" in this equation. So since you multiplied the bottom by 600 you have to multiply the top by 600 as well. 600 times 1 is just 600.

So your answer is, 600 is 1/10 of 6000.

Hope this helps and isn't too confusing.

Dennis is cutting construction paper into rectangles for a project he needs to cut one rectangle that is 12 inches times 15 1/4

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Dennis need 288.91 square inches of construction paper for his project.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dennis is cutting construction paper into rectangles for a project.

He needs to cut one rectangle that is 12 inches times 15 1/4 inches

First convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction

$15\frac{1}{4} = \frac{(15\times4) + 1}{4} = \frac{61}{4}$

So the area of 1st rectangle is

$A_1 = 12\times \frac{61}{4} = 183 \: in^{2}$

He needs to cut another rectangle that is 10 1/3"" x 10 1/4""

The symbol " means inches

First convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction

$10\frac{1}{3} = \frac{(10\times3) + 1}{3} = \frac{31}{3}$

$10\frac{1}{4} = \frac{(10\times4) + 1}{4} = \frac{41}{4}$

So the area of 2nd rectangle is

$A_2 = \frac{31}{3}\times \frac{41}{4} = 105.91 \: in^{2}$

The total construction paper needed for this project is

$A = A_1 + A_2\\\\A = 183 + 105.91\\\\A = 288.91 \: in^{2}$

Therefore, Dennis need 288.91 square inches of construction paper for his project.
