Given that we Jenny wants to equivalent fraction of 45% then convert into reduced fraction and then convert into decimal equivalent.
She has already shown her work. We just need to find the error if any.
to convert any percent value we just divide that number by 100 because percent itself means divide by 100.
Hence first step 45%=45/100 is correct.
Then she needed to convert into reduced fraction. To do that she divided numerator and denominator both by 5 and got 9/20.
step 2 is also correct.
Now she needs to convert into decimal equivalent so she divided 9 by 20 and got 4.5 while the correct answer should be 0.45
Hence she did error when converting fraction form into decimal form.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. How many terms are in the expression?
The terms are sorted by looking at the sing/indicator in front of them. For this expression there are 4 terms
13x, -2y, -5x, and 8
2. Which terms are “like terms”?
13x and -5x are like terms.
3. Are there any constants? If so, what are they?
Yes there is a constant terms and it's 8
4. What are the variables in the expression?
The variables in this expression are x, and y
5. What are the coefficients in the expression?
Coefficients is the number in front of variables in this expression the coefficients are 13, -2, and -5
Hey there!
Let's write an equation given this information. We will use x to represent the number.
2(x-7)=5
Now, we use the distributive property to remove the parentheses.
2x-14=5
Now, we add 14 to both sides.
2x=19
We divide both sides by 2.
x=9.5
Therefore, our number is 9.5
I hope this helps!
The quick and easy answer is 3/100
