What fraction benchmark is .58 closest to?

Mathematics
1 answer:
NikAS [45]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

See below:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, since we aren't given any options, there isn't a limit to what it is.

But, assuming you said fraction benchmark it has to be somewhere between 1/2 2/3 3/4 etc.

Now, we can convert the fractions to their equivalent decimal form

1/2 = 0.5

2/3 = 0.66 repeating.

3/4 = 0.75

Now, we can see that 0.58 is 8 units away from 0.66

We can see that it is also 8 units away from 0.5.

But, seeing to that 2/3 is 0.66 with a ton of sixes, it would in theory be away by 8.66 compared to 8 from 0.5

Therefore, we get the closest benchmark is 1/2 (0.5)

Suppose that a company has recently started manufacturing a new line of​ helicopters, and it took 106.496 labor days to complete
Allisa [31]

A "learning rate" expresses the ratio of the labor spent on the n-th item to that spent on the (n/2)-th item. That is, the 8th helicopter manufactured took days related by ...

0.8 × (days for 8th) = (days for 16th)

(days for 8th) = (days for 16th)/0.8 = 1.25×(days for 16th)

Then the days for the 4th are 1.25 times that, and the days for the 2nd are 1.25 times the days for the 4th. The days for the first helicopter will be

... 1.25⁴×106.496 days = 260 days

The appropriate choice is

... d. 260

At a raffle, 1500 tickets are sold for $2 each for four prizes of $500, $250, $150, and $75. You buy one ticket. What is the exp
Kisachek [45]
To find the expected value of your gain in each prize, subtract the price of the ticket from the prize:

If the prize is $500: $500 - $2 = $498
If the prize is $250:  $250 - $2 = 248
If the prize is $160: $160 - $2 = $73

But if you did not win any cash prize, you do not have any gain because
0 cash prize - $2 ticket = -$2 which is a loss
