Answer:

1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

For a visual aid, you can think of this question in terms of pizzas. If we have four pizzas, the first sliced into only 2 pieces, the second in 5 pieces, the third in 7 pieces and the last one in 10 pieces. The pizza slices become smaller with more pieces.

You can also compare the fractions by looking at their decimal values.

\frac{1}{2}  = 0.5 \\  \frac{1}{5}  = 0.2 \\  \frac{1}{7}  = 0.143 \\  \frac{1}{10}  = 0.1

Suppose both factors in a multiplication problem are multiples of 10. Why might the number of zeroes in the product be different
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Multiplying factors whose products are multiples of 10 add to the number of zeros when factors are multiplied as multiples of 10s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first five multiples of ten be

10*1= 10

10*2= 20

10*3=30

10*4=40

10*5= 50

Suppose we chose 20 and 50.

Now multiplying 20 with 50 we get

20*50= 1000

IF we count the total number of zeros in the factors ( 20 and 50) they are 2.

But the number of zeros in the product (1000) are 3.

This is because when we multiply 2 with 5 we get 10 which adds to the existing number of zeros ( i.e 2) and we get a total of 3 zeros.

And multiplying 10 with 50 we get

10*50= 500

IF we count the total number of zeros in the factors ( 10 and 50) they are 2.

But the number of zeros in the product (500) are also 2.

This is because when we multiply 1 with 5 we get 5 which does not add to the existing number of zeros ( i.e 2) and the total number of zeros remain the same.

Similarly multiplying 20 with 30 we get

20*30= 600

IF we count the total number of zeros in the factors ( 20 and 30) they are 2.

But the number of zeros in the product (600) are also 2.

This is because when we multiply 2 with 3 we get 6 which does not have a zero and the total  number of zeros remain the same as in the factors.

So we see that multiplying factors whose products are multiples of 10 add to the number of zeros when factors are multiplied as multiples of 10s.

Avery is currently making $14 per hour at her job. Her boss gives her a 15% raise for showing good work ethic.
sattari [20]

Answer:

C)  $84

Step-by-step explanation:

40 x 14 = 560

she made $560 prior to raise

14 x 1.15 = 16.10

her new hourly rate is $16.10

40 x 16.1 = 644

she now earns $644 per week

644 - 560 = 84

Answer:

$3100 is invested at 9%

$4900 is invested at 11%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take "x" be the amount invested at 9%.

(x + 1800) is invested in another account at 11%.

The interest amount earned by the two accounts is $818.

Here we can use the simple interest formula and find the amount invested in each account.

Simple interest (I) = , where P- is the principal , N is the number of years and R is the interest rate.

Simple interest =

0.09x + 0.11(x+1800) = 818

Now we have to simplify and find the value of x .

Use the distributive property and simplify the second term.

0.09x + 0.11x + 198 = 818

0.2x + 198 = 818  

0.2x =818 - 198

0.2x = 620

x = 620/0.2

x = 3100.

So $3100 is invested at 9%

x + 1800 = 3100 + 1800

= $4900

$4900 is invested at 11%

Hope this helped.
