The first answer to your question is 5 6/10 because you pronounce the decimal as six tenths. There is a simpler form of 5 6/10, it is 5 3/5. This is because you divide six by 2 and get 3 and divide 10 by two and get 5.

The answer to your question is 5 6/10

Your 5 is a whole number and your 6 is past the decimal point and is in the tenth column therefore that's why you get your 6/10.

Is-0.62 greater than or less than -6/7

NNADVOKAT [17]

-6/7 = -0.85
-31/50 = -0.62
So -0.62 is greater than -0.85
-0.62 < -0.85
Because the bigger the fraction is the less it actually is and I think the same goes for decimals . Hope I helped

Y * x = 20<br><br> y + x = 9 <br><br> what numbers are y and x equal to?

Ksivusya [100]

$y = 9 - x$
Substitute into
$y \times x = 20 \\ (9 - x) \times x = 20 \\ { - x}^{2} + 9x = 20 \\ {x}^{2} - 9x + 20 = 0 \\ (x - 5)(x -4) = 0 \\ x = 5 \: or \: x = 4$
When x = 5,
$y = 9 - 5 \\ y = 4$
When x = 4,
$y = 9 - 4 \\ y = 5$

x = 5, y = 4
x = 4, y = 5

Hope this helps. - M
