Alejandro uses the steps below to convert

Mathematics
1 answer:
dezoksy [38]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The division was computed incorrectly.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Workings:

\frac{5}{8} to percentage

\frac{8}{5} = 1.6 = 160\%

Required

Explain his error

The question says 5/8

Instead, Alejandro's working shows 8/5.

This working is done in an incorrect order and the correct solution is:

Let

x = \frac{5}{8}

Solve the fraction

x = 0.625

Multiply by 100%

x = 0.625 * 100\%

x = 62.5\%

<em>Hence, option (a) is correct.</em>

Excercise 1:

No, this is not simplified fully. The full answer would be <span>−7dk+14d−21k</span>−7, not <span>14d - 9 - 21k - 7dk + 2. So, it is not equivalent.
</span><span>
Excercise 4:
</span><span>7dk (2 - 3 - 1) - 7
</span>
Just multiply 7dk into (2) (-3) and (-1)
you'd get:
<span><span>−<span>14dk</span></span>+</span>−<span>7 after simplifying it fully.
