Answer and explanation:
Benchmark fractions are fractions that are used as references in measuring other fractions. They are easily estimated and so can be used in measuring more "specific" fractions such as 1/5, 7/9, 3/7, 1/3 etc. If I wanted to measure 1 1/3cm for instance using a calibrated ruler, having centimeter measurements, I would first find 1cm on the ruler and then find half of one centimeter. Seeing that half is bigger than 1/3 but close, I could then estimate 1/3 to be somewhere less than 1/2 but a bit close to it
Answer:
The answers are 23, 9,200 and 26, 10,400
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 2k represent the original even number (such that k is an integer)
then 2(k + 1) is the next consecutive even number.
4(2k) - 16 = 2(k + 1)
8k - 16 = 2k + 2
6k = 18
k = 3
since 2k represents the original number, then 2(3) = 6 is the oroginal number
Answer: 6
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
In the case of this distance, trying to imagine 5 x 10^6 is obviously way too ridiculous
Answer:
The triangles are similar by the AA similarity postulate
Step-by-step explanation:
The only thing we know is that the three angles are the same
70+30 +80 = 180 so the missing angle in each triangle is 80 in the first and 70 in the second
The triangles are similar by the AA similarity postulate
