Multiplication was invented to reduce the work involved in repeated addition.
... 88 + 88 + 88 + 88 = 4×88 = 352
352 passengers are carried <em>to</em> the island each day.
_____
Some questions must be answered before we can give a definite answer.
1. If the same person rides twice, are they counted twice?
2. Are passengers on the return trips (<em>from</em> the island) counted?
3. If return trip passengers are counted, is the ferry full on those trips?
4. Does every passenger to the island return the same day?
5. Does any passenger go to the island more than once per day?
Answer: 31824010600
Step-by-step explanation: 3182400060 tens and 100 hundreds = 31824010600.
I'll give a practice problem to help explain it a bit better.
Here, let's try to solve 45% of of 60.
First, we convert the percentage into a decimal. To turn any percentage into a decimal you move the point two spaces to the left.
That means 45% as a decimal is .45.
Next, we multiply our number, 60, by the decimal .45.
60×.45=27.
That means 45% of 60 is 27.
To sum it all up, you have to get the percentage, move the decimal point two spaces to the left, and multiply it by the number you were trying to find the percentage of.
Have a wonderful day! :)
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
54=2x3x3x3
12=2x2x3
common factors are 2 and 3 so 2x3=6
Answer:
35triangles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Total distinct points = 7
If we are to form triangles using the dots,
Total points in a triangle = 3
Using the combination rule;
number of triangles formed = 7C3
7C3 = 7!/(7-3)!3!
7C3 = 7!/4!3!
7C3 = 7*6*5*4!/4!3!
7C3 = 7*6*5/6
7C3 = 7*5
7C3 = 35
Hence the amount of triangles that can be formed is 35triangles
