The product of two positive fractions are also less than one because you are multiplying a number which is already less than 1.
For example.
1/ 2 = is 50% of a whole.
When you multiply 1/2 by 1/2 you do not get the 100% of the whole because you are only getting 50% of the 50% of the whole, which in turn is equivalent to 25% of the whole.
1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4 of the whole.
The only time you can get a result of 1 and above where two fractions are less than 1 is when you perform addition of these fractions.
1/2 + 1/2 = 1 - ALL CREDITS GO TO @TASKMASTERS!
<span>The arcs must intersect because the point at which the arcs intersect forms the halfway point of the angle; if they don’t intersect, the angle will not be bisected. </span>
The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:
At least 7 times.
Explanation:
Since 10% of the water in the jug is removed each time, this means that 100-10=90% of the water remains.
After two times, we would have 0.9(0.9) = 0.81 = 81% of the water; each time she pours, the number of times 0.9 is multiplied by itself changes. This makes this an exponential inequality (it is not an equation, as we want "less than half of the water"):
To solve this, we will use logarithms:
