Take that certain number we are looking for as 'n'
38% ⇒ 0.38
0.38n = 152
Divide by 0.38
0.38n = 152
/0.38 /0.38
n = 400
So 38% of 400 is 152.
2689
rounded to the nearest tens = 2690
rounded to the nearest hundreds = 2700
rounded to the nearest thousands = 3000
If the number before the place it needs to be round off is 5 and above, then it is rounded up. If the number is 4 and below, it is rounded down.
For example:
2444
rounded to the nearest tens = 2440
rounded to the nearest hundreds = 2400
rounded to the nearest thousands = 2000
Answer:
264 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's convert 3 hours and 40 minutes into hours first.
Recall that 1 hour = 60 minutes.
Therefore 40 minutes = 40/60 hours = 2/3 hours.
The car travelled 3 and 2/3 hours in total.
Recall that distance = speed times time.
The car has travelled 72 x 3 2/3 miles = 264 miles.
Since q+d=19, we can re-write this as d=19-q. Using the second equation 0.25q+0.1d=4 we can multiply both sides by 100. So we get 25q+10d=400. So now we can plug d=19-q into 25q+10d=400. So now we get, 25q+190-10q=400. Subtracting both sides by 190, we get 15q=210 and that q=14 plugging that in d=5
