Answer:
okay so im not sure which is being round so i'll do both
if you are going to round the miles and gallons:
278.2 to 278 because the decimal is below 0.5
19.6 to 20 because the decimal is above 0.5
278/20 = 13.9 which you would round to 14 because the decimal is above 0.5
if you are only going to round the answer:
278.2/19.6 = 14.193877551 which you would round to 14 because the decimal is below 0.5
so regardless of what you do, <u> your answer will be 14</u>
Answer: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
if you're trying to solve for x, and it is equal to zero, then it would be -3. plug it in and it would all cancel out
Step-by-step explanation:
2 2/3
=><em>If</em> 8/3 = 1/6
x =1
1/6x = 8/3 ( Divide both sides by <em>1</em><em>/</em><em>6</em><em> </em>)
___ ___
1/6 1/6
(By cross-multiplying the numerators and denominators)
=> 1×6 8×6
___ x = ___
6×1 3×1
Cancelling out , we have
x = 8×2
____ = 8×2 = 16
1 × 1
<em>The</em><em> </em><em>final</em><em> </em><em>answer</em><em> </em><em>becomes</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>6</em>
<em>Hope</em><em> </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>helps</em><em>.</em>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's take a real situation. Suppose he has 1500 books in total
2/3 of them are fiction. Of means multiply.
them = 1500
2/3 * 1500 = 3000/3 = 1000
Now of the one thousand fiction books 4/5 of them are mysteries.
4/5 * 1000 = 4000/5 = 800.
Now let's see what happens when we just do this by answering the question directly.
2/3 * 4/5 = 8/15 This has the meaning that 8 out of every 15 books = mysteries.
Try this on the 1500 books.
8/15 * 1500 = 9000/15 = 800. So the answers are the same and the answer the computer expects should be 8/15 or 0.533333333
Just to check, does 0.5333333 * 1500 = 800? Try it.
