For this sort of problem, you need to be familiar with prefixes.

So:

megabyte = 1 *10^6 bytes

kilobyte = 1*10^3 bytes

and a regular byte would just be 1

Now, you will need to do a conversion:

1megabyte*\frac{1*10^6bytes}{1megabyte}*\frac{1*10^{-3}kilobyte}{1byte}

I'm going to explain this just in case, but we convert megabytes to regular bytes in the first half by using the information I gave you above. (In one megabyte, there are 1*10^6 bytes!)

In the second fraction thought, remember one kilobyte is 1*10^3 bytes. However, you usually only see one of each thing on the bottom of fractions, so you need to add a negative sign to the 3. (technically you could just do \frac{1kilobyte}{1*10^3bytes}, but I think it is more correct to do write it out how I did).

*** They do equal the same thing though! Do whichever way is easier for you!

Now, your answer should be:

10^3 kilobytes (1000 kilobytes)

Hope this helped!

To simply determine if the solution is true. Simply plug in and or substitute the values of w for the expression. Then see if the left hand side is equal to the right side of the equation.

What is greater 7/10 or 3/6? please show work
vovikov84 [41]
What you need to do is make sure the denominators are the same so multiply 7/10 by 6. It should now be 42/60. Next multiply 3/6 by 10. It should now equal 30/60. 7/10 = 42/60. 3/6 = 30/60. 7/10 is greater. I hope this was somewhat helpful :3

How do u compare rate of change and slope help plz
antoniya [11.8K]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is described by the the initial and final value of one quantity over the difference between the initial and final of the other

Rate: for points on a Cartesian plane,(x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

the slope, m= (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

The rate of change on the other hand is mostly refers to how much a quantity is changing with time i.e the rate of change of y from y1 to y2 can be expressed as

rate = (y2 - y1)/(t2 - t1)...where t1 and t2 are the various time in y1 and y2 respectively...
