This is because 2÷3 = 0 . Six repeating but the Calculator rounds the last 6 to 7 because I can't fit all the repeating sixes in one calculator

Explain why the exponents cannot be added in the product 12^3 x 11^3
cestrela7 [59]
The exponent cannot be added to the product because it stated in the law of exponents. An exponent is simply the shorthand in multiplying your base number. Exponent will give how many times you will multiply the base numbers. It is not possible that you add both exponents in the given situation because they have different value together.
=> 12^3 x 11^3
If we solve this equation following the rule of exponent will get the correct answer:
=> (12 x 12 x 12) x (11 x 11 x 11)
=> 1728 X 1331
=> the answer is 2 299 968
But if we add the exponent, the answer would be wrong
=> 12^3 x 11^3
=> 132^6
=> 5289852801024 which is wrong.

Oxana [17]

Answer:

32.43

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the standard divisor

We sum up the tickets sold

Applejack's = 66 tickets

Broncos = 769 tickets

Colts = 652 tickets

Deers = 556 tickets

The total prize amount = $63

Total tickets = 66 + 769 + 652 + 556 = 2043

Standard divisor = 2043/63

= 32.43

The standard divisor to two decimal places is 32.43
