2,000, 200 and 20 are similar except for the number of zeros.
You can remove a zero from each to equal the number of zeros in the divisor. So 80,000 ÷ 2,000 is equivalent to 80 ÷ 2 = 40 you just remove the 3 zeros
80,000 ÷ 200 is equivalent to 800 ÷ 2 = 400 you just keep removing 0s like for instance this time it was 2 lastly 80,000 ÷ 20 only allows us to remove 1 zero 8,000 ÷ 2 = 4,000. The smaller the divisor the greater the quotient when dividing the same number like for instance in this example 80,000
X-the number
16 + 2x = -24 |subtract 16 from both sides
2x = -40 |divide both sides by 2
<u>x = -20</u>
Answer: <em>The number is -24</em>

Answer:
73.5 pounds of dog food in 7 days
Step-by-step explanation:
10 1/2 x 7

The history museum is less that 9 4/5 miles. 9/10 means that the 9 3/4 mile is broken up into 10 equal parts and the distance to the museum is only 9 of those parts. 9 3/4 (9.8) divided by 10 equals 98/100 (.98)
98/100 x 9 = 882/100 or 8.82
Justin's house is 8.82 miles from the museum.
