Answer:
-0.4 should be in between 0 and -0.5, however be as close to -0.5 as possible while not being ON -0.5.
3 4/5 should be in between 3 and 4, so you can split 4/5 into 8/10 which are equal to each other. Then you can pretend to split the 3 and 4 gap into 10 equal pieces. After you split the gap, count 8 parts to the left of 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
I hope you understand what I mean.
The answer for the first one is 1/8 and the answer to the second one is 1/2
The copper wire was 150 meters longer than the steel wire. You take 240-60 and get 180. You can then divide that number by 2 to figure out how long the steel wire was to get 90. From there, subtract the 90 by the original 240 and you’ll get 150.
