Answer: Is 5/8 greater than 6/10? Is 5/8 bigger than 6/10? Is 5/8 larger than 6/10? These are all the same questions with one answer.

To get the answer, we first convert each fraction into decimal numbers. We do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator for each fraction as illustrated below:

5/8 = 0.625

6/10 = 0.6

Then, we compare the two decimal numbers to get the answer.

0.625 is greater than 0.6.

Therefore, 5/8 is greater than 6/10 and the answer to the question "Is 5/8 greater than 6/10?" is yes.

Hope it helps :)

Answer:

5/8 is greater than 6/10 or as decimals 0.625 is greater than 0.6 because 5/8, smaller fractions are always closer to a whole number which make them more, another way to look at it is 5 is 3 numbers away from 8, and 6 is 4 numbers away from 10, which makes -5/8 greater.

Step-by-step explanation:

5/8 = 0.625

6/10 = 0.6

So Therefore, 5/8 is greater than 6/10.

In the adjoining figure O is the centre of the circle the tangent to the circle of radius 6 cm from the exterior point P of the
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Let P be the external point. O be the origin. join O and P get OP and nearest point on the circle from P be A.

Let Q be the point onthe circle  in which, tangent make 90° with radius at Q.

PQ = 8 and OQ = 6

we get a right angled triangle  PQO right angled at Q.

so, OP^2 = OQ^2 + PQ^2= 8^2 + 6^2 = 64 + 36 =1==

therefore OP =10cm

we need nearest point from P, which is PA

PA = OP - OA= 10 -6=4cm

2(x -9) = 9 divided ( - 1/3) what value of x makes the equation true <br> plsss help :)))
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

x = -9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Divide 9 by -1/3:

\frac{9}{1} ÷ -\frac{1}{3} = \frac{9}{1} · -\frac{3}{1}

= -27

2. Divide both sides by 2:

2(x - 9) = -27

\frac{2(x-9)}{2} = \frac{-27}{2}

(x - 9) = -\frac{27}{2}

3. Add 9 to both sides:

x = -\frac{9}{2}

(or 4.5 if you need it in decimal form)

hope this helps!
