Answer:
4.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The tenth place in this number is 4.<u>4</u>32, so that should be the last digit.
Now, we need to know wether to round up or down. That is determined by the digit that comes after it. <em>If that digit, here it is the hundredth, is 0-4, it rounds down, if it is 5-9, it rounds up</em>. Our next digit is <em>3</em>, which goes into the first category, <em>so the number rounds down</em>, so the tenth remains the same. That leaves us with 4.4.
Answer:
8 floors
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of employees is directly proportional to the number of floors that each building has.
The first building has 32 floors and it occupies 189 employees. Therefore:
189 α 32
=> 189 = k * 32 = 32k
where k = constant of proportionality
=> k = 189/32
The new building has 50 employees, therefore:
50 = kN
where N = number of floors
=> 50 = 189/32 * N
N = (50 * 32) / 189 ≅ 8 floors
The new building should have 8 floors
