Answer: The number of pieces of the ribbon she can cut = 13\frac12 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The length of the ribbon = 5\dfrac25 yards

= \dfrac{5\times5+2}{5}  =\dfrac{27}{5} yards

Length of each piece = \dfrac25 yards

The number of identical pieces can be cut from the entire ribbon = (Length of the ribbon ) ÷ (Length of each piece )

=\dfrac{27}{5}\div\dfrac{2}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{27}{5}\times\dfrac{5}{2}\\\\=\dfrac{27}{2}\\\\=13\dfrac12

Hence, the number of pieces of the ribbon she can cut = 13\frac12 yards

N ÷ 10 exponent 2 = 0.123<br><br>(Help please)
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

n = 12.3

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming we're looking for n, to find it, we need to isolate it.

Our equation will be solved through PEMDAS :

Parenthesis

Exponent

Multiply/Divide

Add/Subtract

n / 10^2 = 0.123

Get rid of the exponent by applying it to 10,

10^2 = 100

n/100 = 0.123

Now to get rid of the division, multiply the denominator (100) to both sides.

n/100 * 100 = 0.123 * 100

n = 12.3

What do you do when your getting bullied?
GuDViN [60]

If you’re being bullied there’s a lot you can do. While different tactics work for different people, the first thing you should do is try to work it out yourself.

Depending on how bad the bullying is (and as long as you don’t feel at risk, scared or physically threatened) you might want to try and work it out yourself – as a first step.

The more empowered you are, and the more you can help yourself, the better chance you have to stop the bully.

If the bully doesn’t change their behavior, that’s when talking to someone else can be really helpful.

The bully wants you to react. Their goal is to take away your power, make you sad and scared. And if you show them you are not sad and scared, they will often lose interest and they cannot take away your power.

Remember they want to upset you constantly so you get angry. If you don’t get angry, the bully will lose their own power.

Remember that bullies are human - they eat, sleep and live just like you do. The only difference is that you are NOT a bully! Bullies act the way they do because they lack the attention or parental love and nurturing that you have. They are insecure and bully only to feel powerful.

Bullies look for a reaction from you and often lose interest if they aren't given the satisfaction of getting one.
