13/100 as a decimal is 0.13.
0.45 Isn't Equal To Any Of These Fractions But It Is Equal To 45/100
Answer:
a) 10 pieces of 2/3 pound can be made.
b) 0.54 pounds of wax is left over.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount of clear wax available = 
pounds
So, the maker has in total 4.5 pounds of wax
Now, The weight of each piece = 
pounds
To find the number of pieces that can be made out of 4.5 pounds of wax,
let that number = n
So, 
or, n = 
So, nearly 6 pieces can be made completely out of the clear wax
Left over amount of wax = Total weight - Weights of the pieces made
= 4.5- 6(0.66)
= 0.54 pounds
Hence, 0.54 pounds of wax is left over
Given:
grams of fat : 34 grams TO weight of woman : 102 pounds
grams of fat : ? TO weight of woman : 180 pounds
This is a proportion problem: 34 grams to 102 pounds.
We first have to convert a unit of measure to another to maintain uniformity of measure. let us convert pounds to grams:
102 pounds * 453.592 grams / pound = 46,266.384 grams
180 pounds * 453.592 grams / pound = 81,646.560 grams
34 grams to 46,266.384 grams = x grams to 81,646.560 grams
proportion: a:b = c:d where ad = bc
34 grams * 81,646.560 grams = x * 46,266.384 grams
2,775,983.04 grams² = x * 46,266.384 grams
2,775,983.04 grams² ÷ 46,266.384 grams = x
60 grams = x
A woman weighing 180 pounds should eat 60 grams of fat to maintain her weight.
