I think 2, 8, 5 <span>those are the factors that can be divided out to simplify the multiplication problem.</span>
15,000 --> fifteen thousand
400 --> four hundred
00 --> zero
9 --> nine
If you put this all together it gives you fifteen thousand four hundred and nine.
11/4% = (11/4)/100 = 11/400 = 0.0275;
1/4 = 0.2500;
1/80 = 0.0125;
We observe that 0.0125 < 0.0275 and 0.0114 < 0.0275 and 0.2500 > 0.0275 and 0.12500 > 0.0275;
The answers are c. and d.
The answer is 3! You got this!
