Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
0.888...
This is a <u>repeating decimal</u> (Is a decimal that has a digit, or a block of digits, that repeat over and over and over again without ever ending)
Convert to fraction number
Let
x=0.888...
10x=8.888...
Subtract 0.888... from 8.888... to remove the decimal
10x-x=8.888...-0.888...
9x=8
Solve for x
x=8/9
therefore
Mike fraction is incorrect
because 4/5=0.8
0.8 is a <u>terminating decimal </u>(It's a decimal with a finite number of digits)
Mike's mistake was considering the number as a terminating decimal instead of a repeating decimal
Beth is correct
because
If you divide 8/9
the result is 0.8888888...

Answer:
56 problems
Step-by-step explanation:
So we already know that the answer is: 56. However, a good help is knowing how to obtain this answer from the data provided.
Tony's quiz had 80 questions
Tony correctly answered 70% of them.
We can always write a percentage amount as a ratio by dividing the amount by 100.
.
This means that for every 100 questions, tony will respond correctly 70.
So, if Toni did a questionnaire of n questions, the amount that will answer correctly is calculated by the following expression:
If then:
Answer:
The answer is 77
Step-by-step explanation:
So, first put them in number order: 65, 73, 77, 77, 81, 83, 98. Then, we cross out the first and the last number. Now the numbers we have are 73, 77, 77, 81, 83. Then, we do that again. 77, 77, 81. One more time. 77 is the number we have left. Easy, right?
Use the Order of Operations.
1/2(14)(5)
1/2(70)
35
The answer is: 35
