If you move the decimal point the same number of places in the dividend and the divisor, you are multiplying them both by the same power of 10. That does not change the quotient.
I would say the answer is B. 8 1/2 because 11/20 is close to 10/20 which would be the same as 1/2
Answer:
To find the hypotenuse you need to use the Pythagorean Theorem which is
a^2+b^2=c^2
Where a and b are your two sides and c is your diagonal line
So you want to plug the numbers in for the right variables
5^2+12^2=c^2
We want to find what c equals so we are first gonna simplify
25+144=c^2
we take 5^2=25, and 12^2=144, then we add them together 25+144=169
169=c^2 now you want to take 169 and square root it because the opposite of squaring is taking it by the root square
The square root of 169=13
Your hypotenuse is 13
Hope this helps ;)
I’m a little confused by the question and the problem, is there a picture of the problem you could add?
