Which of the following is the correct decimal placement for the product of 1.3 * 0.47?

in the given problem, we use the calculator to find 1.3*0.47=0.611

When dealing with percent problems, the following is utilized to find the unknown variable.

• Is means equals
• Of means multiply
• What means unknown (variable)

From the problem above, we are looking for the amount of gratuity the couple can leave.

Let t be the amount of gratuity. Translating into an equation, we have

The gratuity is 15% of the total bill, which becomes

Here, of means multiply and we also convert percent into decimal before multiplying.

So, the value of t=5.76

Thus, a couple will leave a gratuity of $5.76, which is about $6.00.

we are asked to find the largest value from the options given. To solve this problem, we need to convert all the given values into fraction. Then find the least common denominator for all fractions, which we will use to multiply each fraction and make a comparison.

34÷96=

3/8=3/8

0.372=372/1000

37%=37/100

Now, we need to find the least common denominator of 48, 8, 1000, and 100, which is 6000. We multiply each fraction by 6000 as follows:

17/48*6000=2125

3/8*6000=2250

372/1000*6000=2232

37/100*6000=2220

From the above calculations, arranging the fraction from the largest to the smallest in order is: 3/8, 372/1000,37/100, and 17/48.  Thus, the greatest value is 3/8.

In this problem, we assume the truck carries a whole cargo. Thus, total weight is 516 lb divided by 1/3. Thus,

We change the division sign to product and multiply 516 by reciprocal of 1/3. Then,

The weight of the cargo will be 1548 lbs.

to find the average time the athlete runs in 1 mile, find total time divided by total distance covered.

Total distance=4+4=8 miles

Total time=28+32 =60 minutes

From the above, the athlete runs 8 miles in 60 minutes, so the athlete will take how minutes to cover 1 mile.

So, the athlete covers 1 mile in 7.5 minutes.

an independent variable is one that when changed, causes the other variable(s) to change. In our case, calories burned, distance traveled, energy used increase when cycling speed increases.

Therefore, speed is the independent variable while other variables are dependent.

The initial step is to convert the decimal numbers into fractions.

4.4 becomes 44/10

4.25 becomes 425/100

Thus, the set of fractions is 9/2, 44/10, 10/3, 425/100. The least common denominator for 2, 10, 3, and 100 is 300, which we use to compare each options given.

9/2*300=1350

44/10*300=1320

10/3*300=1000

425/100*300=1275

From the above, 1350 is the greatest value which corresponds to 9/2. Thus, 9/2 is the greatest value of all the choices given.

we are needed to find the amount Lana is left with after spending and investing the rest using the given information.

Amount Lana spends = 80% of $60= 80/100 *60 = $48

Amount left to invest = $(60-48) = $12

Lana is left with $12, which she invests and earns a profit of 80%.

Profit earned = 80% of $12 = 80/100 * 12= $9.20

So, Lana will have $12 + $9.20 = $21.60

The first three months of the year are January, February, and March. We need to find the total rainfall for these three months from the provided graph.

In the month of January, rainfall is between o and 1, which is halfway. Therefore, rainfall in January is 0.5 inches

On February, rainfall was 1 inch and on March the rainfall was 2 inches. Thus,

Total rainfall = 0.5 inches + 1 inches + 2 inches = 3.5 inches

We are told to find the area of the pizza given its diameter. The pizza is in circular form, and its area is found as:

However, we are not given r, which is the radius of the circle. But we can find it from the given diameter as

Substituting r=8 in the equation of the area of a circle

Thus, the area of the pizza is 64  in2.
