7 0

Answer:

Total = 800 books

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

In a library, there are 3 non-fiction books for every 7 fiction books. It means that the ratio of non-fiction books to the fiction books is 3:7.

There if the library has 240 non-fiction books.

Let non fiction books are 3x and fiction books are 7x.

ATQ,

3x=240

x=80

Fiction books = 7x = 7(80) = 560

Total no of books = fiction books + non-fiction books

= 240 + 560

=800

Hence, the total no of books are 800.

Use scientific notation to estimate the number of inches in 1,225 miles. Include all calculations in your final answer.
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

1,225 miles = 77616000 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

It is asked to find the number of inches in 1,225 miles

Given

1 inch ≈ 1.578 × 10^-5 miles

Therefore, 1 mile  = 63360 inches

Therefore, 1,225 miles = 1225 x 63360 inches

                 1,225 miles = 77616000 inches

or               1,225 miles = 7.7 x 10^{7} inches

Therefore the final answer is

1,225 miles = 77616000 inches

or               1,225 miles = 7.7 x 10^{7} inches
