Answer:

Those who were able to keep 12 fishes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total = 20 (each)

Required

Which was able to keep 3/5

First, we need to calculate 3/5 of the total number of fishes

Fish = 3/5 * 20

Fish = (3 * 20)/5

Fish = 60/5

Fish = 12

From the calculation above, only those who keep 12 of the 20 fishes were able to keep 3/5 of their fishes

Help me plz<br><br> 2<br> _ Y + 7 = 15<br> 3
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

y= 12

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 y + 7 = 15

Subtract 7 from each side

2/3 y + 7-7 = 15-7

2/3 y = 8

Multiply each side by 3/2 to isolate y

3/2 * 2/3 y = 3/2 * 8

3/2 * 2/3 y = 3 * 4

y = 12

Alex wrote 103.903 in expanded form as 100+3 x 1+9 x 1/100 +3 x 1/1000. Explain his mistake then tell how to correct it.
Damm [24]
Your mistake was in this part  9 x 1/100 . After the decimal point the place value starts with tenths so you should write 9 x 1/10 .

Place values

Before the decimal point

3 ones = 3 x 1

0 tens = 0 x 10

1 hundreds = 1 x 100

After the decimal point

9 tenths = 9 x 1/10

0 hundredths = 0 x 1/100

3 thousandths= 3 x 1/1000

1 x 100 + 0 x 10 + 3 x 1 + 9 x 1/10 + 0 x 1/100 + 3 x 1/1000

  100     +    0     +   3    +    0.9      +     0        +    0.003

           100         + 3      +          0.9                +     0.003 =  103.903
