Answer:
This is a complete lesson with instruction & exercises for 5th grade about multiplying decimals by decimals. The interpretation for multiplying a decimal by a decimal is to think of it as taking a fractional part of a decimal number (the symbol × translates to "of"). The lesson compares multiplication by a decimal to scaling & shrinking a stick. Lastly, it shows the common shortcut to decimal multiplication (multiply as if there were no decimal points; the answer has as many decimals as the factors have in total.)
In the video below, I explain the rule for multiplying decimals (put as many decimal digits in the answer as there are in the factors.) I explain where this rule comes from, using fraction multiplication. The lesson continues below the video.
The temperature would be -10 degrees
Answer:
35.6047 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The wiper blade moves in a circular way, where the radius is 30 inches.
To find how far the bug travelled, we just need to use a rule of three, where the length of the circunference relates to a angle of 360 degrees:
360 degrees -> 2 * pi * radius
68 degrees -> distance
distance * 360 = 2 * pi * radius * 68
distance = 2 * pi * 30 * 68 / 360 = 35.6047 inches
