1/6 = 4/24

1/8 = 3/24

1/3 = 8/24

4/24 is greater than 3/24, but its less than 8/24.

Hope this helped☺☺

If you put it all in the same denominator, which will be 24. So you times 6 by 4 to get there so you times the numerator as well, So now 1/6 = 4/24. And it will be the same for 1/8. Times by 3 to get 24. So its 3/24, and 1/3 times by 8 to get 25 1/3 = 8/24 so now you have the same denominator.
1/6 = 4/24
1/8 = 3/24
1/3 = 8/24
And as you can see 1/6 is bigger than 1/8 and less than 1/3

A microscope was originally priced at $100 but went on sale for 10% off. If Adele bought the microscope and paid 10% sales tax,

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

$99

Step-by-step explanation:

First, it was on sale for 10% off. 10% = 0.1 = 1/10. 1/10 of 100 is 10, so we subtract 10 (because 10% off) to get $90. Then, the sales tax, which we add, is 10%. 1/10 of 90 is 9, so we add 9 to 90 to get our total to be $99

169= (24/2)^2 +(d/2)^2

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer: d = ±10

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

169 = $(\frac{24}{2})^{2}$ + $(\frac{d}{2})^{2}$

169 = (12)² + $\frac{d^{2}}{4}$

169 = 144 + $\frac{d^{2}}{4}$

25 = $\frac{d^{2}}{4}$

100 = d²

√100 = √d²

±10 = d

What is the quotient of 75.42 and 0.1

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

754.2

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we cannot solve the question the way it is. We need to make 0.1 into a whole number. If we move the decimal to the right, once, then it will become the number one.

Of course, what we do to one, we have to do to the other. We move the decimal to 75.42 to the right one. Now it is 754.2

That looks like the answer. The reason is because we are now dividing by one. Something divided by one, will always be itself.

Now we have the answer of 754.2.
