If Heather puts in 1.36% of her salary into a retirement account and she makes $63,000 in a year, this can be solved by 1.36% x 63000. First convert 1.36% into a decimal. To do this, divide by 100.
1.36/100=0.0136
1.36% x 63000
=0.0136 x 63000
=856.8
Heather would put $856.8 in for the whole year. To find how much per month, divide by 12.
856.8/12=71.<span>4
</span>Rounded to the nearest dollar is $71.
Heather would put $71 into a retirement account each month.

</em><em>Note: This was solved by multiply the percent and then dividing by 12 months. You could also do this by dividing by 12 months first and then multiplying the percent.</em>
Not necessarily. You could have done your multiplication wrong. Or in some cases, yes, you could have to use another skill. For example, you can't solve an optimization problem with addition, you need some calculus skills under your belt.

Answer:
m∠BEF = 65.3°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
m∠DEB = 27.2,
m∠DEF = 92.5
Required:
m∠BEF
SOLUTION:
Since B is the interior of ∠DEF, it means ∠DEB and ∠BEF are adjacent angles that make up ∠DEF. And they share the same side, BE.
Therefore:
m∠BEF + m∠DEB = m∠DEF (angle addition postulate)
m∠BEF + 27.2 = 92.5
Subtract 27.2 from each side
m∠BEF + 27.2 - 27.2 = 92.5 - 27.2
m∠BEF = 92.5 - 27.2
m∠BEF = 65.3°
5,880,000 in scientific notation is: 5.88 x 10^6
