So a decrease of 16% followed by an increase of 14% is the same as multiplying by 0.9576 (which is a decrease of 4.24%)
Answer: 3/48
Step-by-step explanation: 3/8 divided by 6/1 is=3/48
Just try to follow my description. When two persons are in the cabin, there is only 1 handshake. When a third person comes, he will have to handshake the two people who came before him. So, there will be 2 handshakes. When a fourth person comes, he would make 3 handshakes with the 3 people who came before him. When the fifth person comes, he would make 4 handshakes with the 4 people who came before him. So, you see there is a pattern. The number of handshakes is 1 less than the total number of people inside the cabin. So, if there are 14 people in the cabin, the last person to come in would have to make 13 handshakes with the 13 people who came in first. Obtaining the sum of all the handshakes starting from the 2 handshakes initially to the 13 handshakes, the sum would be
Total handshakes = 2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12+13
Total handshakes = 90
Therefore, there will be a total of 90 handshakes made within the cabin of 14 people.
Answer: 5 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The area of the square is 
The side length of the square is 
Area of square
Thus, value of a is 5 inch
Scientists are examining two different strains of a particular bacteria. The length of one strain of the bacteria measures 0.000000368
mm, while the length of the second strain measures 0.000000064 mm. How much larger is the first strain than the second?
We can figure this out using scientific notation.
Put 3.04e-7 in standard notation.
Put 0.00000304 back into scientific notation, instead with a multiply sign.
Move the dot back, making the number in between 1-10.
In this case, we would move it back 7 times.
· 
So the answer would be A.
