If you would like to know how far apart would Dale's house and school be on the map if the scale were 1 inch = 6 miles, you can calculate this using the following steps:
1 inch ... 8 miles
1 1/2 inches = 3/2 inches ... x miles = ?
1 * x = 8 * 3/2
x = 8 * 3/2
x = 12 miles
1 inch ... 6 miles
y inches = ? ... 12 miles
1 * 12 = 6 * y
12 = 6 * y /6
y = 12 / 6
y = 2 inches
The correct result would be C. 2 inches.
<span>8.4. To come to this conclusion, one must remember that 1/10 of a number is in essence saying this is 1 out of 10 equally divided portions of a number. This is equivalent to 10%. Multiply the number by the denominator, in this case 10, and you will get the total number.
0.84 x 10 = 8.4 (10% x 10 = 100%). Another way to look at it is to add 0.84 ten times. Either way you should end up with 8.4.</span>
2.9*10^10+ 5.35*10^10
= (2.9+ 5.35)*10^10 (distributive property)
= 8.25*10^10
The correct answer is A. <span>8.25 times 10^10~</span>

Let's say that Bob is x and James is y
x + y = 180
x = 2y
2y + y = 180
y = 60.
James spent 60 dollars.
