What is .16 repeating as a simplified fraction?

1 answer:

8 0

I'm assuming this is 0.1666666...

Which in that case is 1/6.

(Just from memory)

To do 0.161616161616...

First, assign 0.161616... a variable, say it's x.

Now say 100x, what is it.

16.1616161616...

Now subtract x from 100x.

16.161616161616... - 0.16161616...

Or, 99x

99x = 16 in this case right now

Divide both sides by 99

x = 16/99

So it really depends what's repeating, it's either 1/6 or 16/99.

If the price of an object dropped 75% down to $85.99 what was the original price?

Serggg [28]

If the price of an object drastically dropped 75%, then the dropped price is equal to 25% of the original price. That means that to find the original price, we have to multiply by the reciprocal of 25% (4). The original price would be $85.99 * 4 which is $343.96.

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

(-2/7, 2/3)

step-by-step explanation:
-7x + 3y = 2
x = 0
-7(0) + 3y = 2
3y = 2
/3 /3
y = 2/3
y = 0
-7x + 3(0) = 2
-7x = 2
/-7 /-7
x = -2/7
(-2/7, 2/3)
