Solve problems that involve finding powers of a number
Description of mathematics:
In this problem students work with powers of numbers and, as a consequence, come to understand what is happening to the numbers.
Students also see how an apparently enormous and difficult calculation can be broken down into manageable parts. The students should come to realise that there are only a limited number of unit digits obtained when 7 is raised to a power. Further, these specific digits 'cycle round' as the power of 7 increases. This cycle is 7, 9, 3, 1, 7, 9, …
The same is true of the digit in the tens place.
Hello! So Angie reads 60 pages in 2 hours, without the TV on. 60/2 is 30. She reads 30 pages an hour without the TV on, and 24 pages with the TV off. To find the percent of her reading rate with the TV on instead of off, we can just divide both of the reading rates. 24/30 is 0.8. Multiply that by 100 and you get 80% in percent form. There. Angie's reading rate with the TV on is 80% of her reading rate with the TV off. The answer is B: 80%.
About 1.8 yards
There's 36 inches in a yard, so if you divide 64 by 1.8 you get the answer
