The answer to this question would be: 1 5/6
To change a decimal number into fraction, you need to divide the number on the right of decimal point with 1. In this case, the number is 0.83.
This number is hard since .83 doesn't have many factors. To find the answer you can try to multiply the decimal with some number until it close to 1(no decimal left)
0.83* 2= 1.66
0.83* 3= 2.49 ---> close to half, if you find this number, you can try to double it
0.83* 4= 3.32
0.83* 5= 4.15
0.83* 6= 4.98---> close to 1, that means there is high probability that the number can be divided by 6
0.83 would be 4.98/6, but if we assume that the number is 0.8333...... then 0.83 would be 5/6. So, 1.83 would be 1 5/6
Answer:
<u></u>
Explanation:
The measure of how fast the wrestler gained weight, in kg per month, is the weight gain rate.
The table is:
Time (months) Weight (kg)
0.5 80.6
2 88.4
3.5 96.2
The weight gain rate, WGR, for a period may be calculated as:
- WGR = [ weight gain ] / [period]
- WGR = [final weight - initial weight] / [final time - initial time]
- WGR₁ = [88.4 kg - 80.6 kg] / [2 month - 0.5 month] = 7.8 kg / 1.5 month = 5.2 kg / month
- WGR₂ = [96.2 kg - 88.4 kg] / [3.5 month - 2 month] = 7.8 kg / 1.5 month = 5.2 kg / month.
As you see, the wrestler gained weight at a constant rate of 5.2 kg per month.
this is the correct answer
