The larger one should be 29*1016. Round 1016 down to 1000.
You get 29000 when you do that.
6 * 1020 is roundable to 6*1000 which is 6000
If you round 29000 to 30000 then 29*1016 should be 5 times larger than 6 * 1020
Check it out.
29 * 1016 = 29464
6 * 1020 = 6120
When you divide the smaller into the larger, you get 4.18 which is in the same ball park as 5.
Estimating is a skill you need when you are shopping and when you are writing tests. If you need to know if 4.18 is a good answer when a rounded answer is 5, you know you've done the work properly.
Rounding should permit you to get an answer in your head.
Ration or ratio? I'm assuming ratio. 12:13 I think.... let me know if I'm wrong
2,376 square feet

Add the areas of all the sides of the shape.
A triangle's area: 1/2bh
The two triangles' area=24*9=216
The bottom side: 40*24=960
The two other sides: 30*40=1200
Add everything: 216+960+1200=2376
Pretend the greater than less sign is an equal sign
9y - 4y > -7 -3
5y > -10
When you divide both sides by a negative, the sign flips but here the sign doesn’t flip because we don’t need to divid by a negative
y>-2
i'm not sure if you mean 25% <em>off</em> or 25% <em>of</em> so i'll just do both
25% <em>OFF</em>: $150
25% <em>OF</em>: $50
