Answer:
2.8¢, true
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of copper in a penny is reportedly about ...
(0.95 × 3.11 g)×(1 oz)/(28.35 g)×($0.27/oz) ≈ $0.028
Today, the value of the copper in a pre-1982 penny is about 2.8¢, more than double the value of the penny as legal tender.

Answer: 8/25
Step-by-step explanation: Using the place value chart, we can see that the decimal 0.32 is thirty-two hundredths so we can write 0.32 as 32/100.
Since 32/100 is not in lowest terms, we divide both the numerator and the denominator by 4 and we get the equivalent fraction 8/25.
This means that 0.32 can be written as the fraction 8/25 which is in lowest terms.
