Hey there!
In order to find if a fraction would result in a repeating decimal, recall that a fraction is a division problem written vertically. All that you have to do is divide the numerator by the denominator. Also, remember that a repeating decimal will result in the same number after the decimal point as long as the calculator can handle.
3 ÷ 4 = 0.75
1 ÷ 9 = 0.11111111...
5 ÷ 11 = 0.45454545...
3 ÷ 0.42857143...
As you can see, two out of your four answer choices give you a repeating decimal. B gives you a repeated number of "1" while C gives you "45". D doesn't count since there is no pattern of repeated numbers that it follows.
Both B and C fall into the category of repeating decimal. If you're only able to choose one answer, I would ask your teacher, a parent, or a peer what they think.
Hope this helped you out! :-)
He paid 3.19 per gallon both times......first time he bought 12.53 gallons....next time he bought 11.86 gallons
so ur expression is : 3.19(12.53 + 11.86)
Answer:0.75 milligrams will be present in 24 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
The formula for radioactive decay can be written as
N(t)=No (1/2)^(t/t 1/2)
where
No= The amount of the radioactive substance at time=0=milligrams
t 1/2= the half-life= 6 hours
t=24 hours
N(t) = the amount at time t
Step 2--- Solving
N(t)=No (1/2)^(t/t 1/2)
=N(t)=12 x ( 1/2) ^ (24/6)
= 12 x (1/2) ^4
= 12 x 0.0625
= 0.75 milligrams
