If u take 12 divided by .20 you would get 60 because if u think of it as a dinner bill say it is $60.00 and I want to give a 10% tip it would be $6 but if u give a 20% tip u would give $12
C. 8 23/24. One way you can solve this is by dividing 14 1/3 by 8, because it is the denominator of 5/8, then multiplying the quotient by 5, because it is the numerator of 5/8. (14 1/3 / 8) x 5 = 8 23/24
Is that 258.177 or 258,177. because if its a decimal then you would look at the third space behind the decimal since that is hundredth thousandths and since its 7 it would round the other 7 to be an 8 so they answer would be 258.18
Remember your Number system After the decimal point to the right, the next digit is the TENTH, and next is HUNDREDTH.
So for 26.5 = 26.500. The tenth digit is 5, and the Hundredth is 0. After the hundredth digit which is 0, the next digit is also 0. The second 0 is not up to 5, so we would not add to the first zero. (Was it 5, or above, we would have added 1 to first zero)
So the answer is 26.50. If the next digit after the hundredth digit was 5 or more the answer would have been 26.51.
But for this question the answer is 26.50 to the nearest hundredth. Cheers.
