Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n = the repeating, non-terminating number 0.666...
We now have n = 0.666666...
We want the number n in the form of a fraction.
Since only 1 digit repeats, the 6, use a 1 followed by 1 zero, which means the number 10. Now multiply both sides by 10 and write the original equation below it.
10n = 6.666666...
n = 0.666666...
Subtract the bottom equation from the top equation.
9n = 6
n = 6/9
n = 2/3

Answer: choice B) 36</h3>
=================================================
Explanation:
The vertical sides, when read from left to right, can be divided to get this fraction: 9/90
Following the same order and direction, we divide the slanting corresponding sides to get: b/360
The fractions we constructed are equal to one another, as the triangles are said to be proportional.
We have the fraction 9/90 = b/360
Lets cross multiply and solve for b
--------------------
9/90 = b/360
9*360 = 90*b
3240 = 90b
90b = 3240
90b/90 = 3240/90
<h3>b = 36</h3>
--------------------
A quick way to do this may be to notice how the jump from 9 to 90 is "times 10" so the jump from b to 360 is also "times 10". Think in reverse to divide 360 over 10 and we land on 36 as our answer. This line of thinking does not work as simple for all proportional problems.

Answer:
358.125
Step-by-step explanation:
In real life when I hear the word distribute, I know that it means that something is being handed out. In business, there is something called a distributor and they hand out stuff from the company that you buy it from. In mathematics, it means that you're giving another number something from another number.
