PART 1:
Jeremy gives the correct answer.
The value of 0.41 [with a bar over the digit 4 and 1] shows that the digit 4 and 1 are reoccurring = 0.414141414141414141....
Jenny's assumption of 41/100 will give a decimal equivalency of 0.41 [without a bar over digit 4 and 1]. This value is not a reoccurring decimal value.
PART 2:
The long division method is shown in the picture below
PART 3:
As mentioned in PART 1, the result of converting 41/100 into a decimal is 0.41 [non-reoccuring decimal] while converting 41/99 into a decimal is 0.41414141... [re-occuring decimal]. The conjecture in PART 1 is correct
Answer:
4 times
Step-by-step explanation:
You divide 12 by 3
To obtain an equivalent fraction by multiplying, multiply the whole fraction by any single number. Example: 3/4 multiplied by 3 is 9/12. Those fractions are equivalent.
To obtain an equivalent fraction by dividing, look at the top number and the bottom number. If they both can be divided by a number without it being a decimal, it’s an equivalent fraction. Example: 8/10, both of those numbers can be divided by 2 that isn’t a decimal, 4/5. 4/5 and 8/10 are equivalent
