The first step is to assign the decimal number to a variable.
For the repeating fraction 0.111_1, this would look like
.. x = 0.111_1 . . . . . . . . . . where we use an underscore to identify the following digit(s) as repeating
The next step is to multiply that value by 10 to a power equal to the number of repeating digits. If there is one repeating digit (as here), then you want (10^1)x = 10x.
.. 10x = 1.111_1
The third step is to subtract x from this.
.. 10x -x = 1.111_1 -0.111_1 = 1
.. 9x = 1
And the final step is to divide by the coefficient of x.
.. x = 1/9 . . . . . . this is the value of the repeating decimal fraction.
_____
Here's one that's a little more complicated. It is done the same way.
.. x = 3.254545_45
.. 100x = 325.454545_45
.. 100x -x = 99x = 322.2
.. x = 322.2/99 = 3222/990 = 179/55
The answer is 73 ounces. the gift weights 64 ounces ( 4 pounds ) alone and 64+9=73. *1 pounds = 16 ounces
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe your answer is the first option, 1/2 ft.
*Volume is expressed by length x width x height.
If we multiply the length 5/7 and the height 1 & 1/2 we get 15/14:
*To multiply fractions you must multiply across, multiply the numerator (or top number) by the numerator and the denominator (bottom number) by the denominator.
- Let's turn 1 & 1/2 into a mixed fraction to make things a little easier. 1 & 1/2 also equivalent to 3/2
-Multiply the numerators together, 5 from the 5/7 and now 3 from the 3/2
(5 x 3 = 15)
-Multiply the denominators together, 7 from the 5/7 and 2 from the 3/2
(7 x 2 = 14)
Therefore, 5/7 x 1 & 1/2 is 15/14.
Now what multiplied by 15/14 equals 15/28?
Well... 1 x 15 = 15. That gives us our numerator, 1.
2 x 14 = 28... and we have our denominator 2.
Putting those two together we get a fraction of 1/2. Your width is then 1/2 ft.
I'm so sorry for all the work here! I know it's a lot. I hope it's not too confusing to look at. Hopefully this helps!
