Step-by-step explanation:. The first says “I know that 10 is one-tenth of 100. I will therefore divide 50 by 10. The answer is 5”.
This is fine when the numbers are relatively simple. But suppose the numbers are more complicated.
What is 22% of 46?
Now it’s much less straightforward. You can’t just work out what 22% is, expressed as a fraction, and anyway, it’s not a simple fraction.
Instead, you have to divide 46 into 100 equal parts, and work out what 22 of them would be when added together.
So: 46 ÷ 100 = 0.46 [remember, when you divide by 100, you move the decimal point two places to the left].
0.46 × 22 = 10.12
Answer: 22% of 46 is 10.12.
Hope this helped :)
It's an expression that can be simplified to read
( 0.7 x 0.4 ) ( b³ x b⁹ )
= ( 0.28 ) ( b¹² ) = 0.28 b¹² .
For this problem, you would use the slope formula, or m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1). So, let's put in what we know.
The x's and y's correspond with our coordinates. So let's plug that in:
m=(6-0)/(2-0)
m=(6)/(2)
m=3
So, the slope of your line is 3.
Answer:
You will need 3 6/13 quarts of peanuts to make 3 jars of peanuts butter
Step-by-step explanation:
To make this answering seamless, we make the mixed fractions into improper fractions
Hence 2 1/2 becomes 5/2
while 2 1/6 becomes 13/6
Here we are told that a bag with 5/2 quarts of peanuts can make 13/6 jars of peanuts butter
Hence, x quarts of peanuts will make 3 jars of peanuts butter
To get the value of x, what we simply need to do is to cross multiply.
Thus, we have
5/2 - 13/6
x - 3
3 * 5/2 = 13/6 * x
15/2 = 13x/6
26x = 90
x = 90/26
x = 45/13
x = 3 6/13
