Jackson is practicing basketball. He makes a basket from the free-throw line 9 out of 27 shots. Write the decimal from the fraction of Jackson’s shot that resulted in the basket.
To write the decimal for the fraction 9/27, divide the numerator (9) by the denominator (27).
9 ÷ 27 = 0.33333333333 (rounded to 11 decimal places)
Therefore, the decimal representation of the fraction 9/27 is approximately 0.333.
John is trying to calculate how many apples and oranges he eats in one year. if he eats 13 apples every week and 2 oranges every day how many apples and oranges (in a fraction in simplest form) will he have eaten in a year and does he eat more oranges or apples every year?
Let's calculate the number of apples John eats in a year.
Since there are 52 weeks in a year, multiply 13 by 52 to find the total number of apples he eats in a year: 13 * 52 = 676 apples.
Now, let's calculate the number of oranges John eats in a year.
Since there are 365 days in a year, multiply 2 by 365 to find the total number of oranges he eats in a year: 2 * 365 = 730 oranges.
To find the fraction of apples to oranges, we can write this as the fraction 676/730.
To simplify this fraction, find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 676 and 730, which is 2.
Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2, we get 338/365.
Therefore, John eats 676/730 (or simplified as 338/365) apples and oranges in a year.
To determine whether he eats more oranges or apples, we can compare the numerators of the fractions. Since 338 is less than 365, John eats more oranges than apples in a year.
simplify: (6/76^29 x 9) - 9/7
To simplify the expression (6/76^29 x 9) - 9/7, we first need to evaluate the calculations within the parentheses.
Let's start with (6/76^29 x 9):
First, we calculate 76^29. However, this is an extremely large number that cannot be accurately calculated. Therefore, we cannot simplify this part of the expression.
Next, let's handle the subtraction: (6/76^29 x 9) - 9/7.
We cannot simplify this expression any further because we have an unknown value for 76^29.
Therefore, the simplified expression is (6/76^29 x 9) - 9/7.
thats not one of the answers, try again
Apologies for the confusion. Let's simplify the expression correctly.
To simplify (6/76^29 x 9) - 9/7:
First, let's simplify the calculation within the parentheses:
6/76^29 = 6 divided by 76 raised to the power of 29.
Next, let's evaluate the subtraction:
(6/76^29 x 9) - 9/7 = 6/76^29 multiplied by 9, minus 9/7.
Since we have an unknown value for 76^29, we cannot simplify it further.
Therefore, the simplified expression is (6/76^29 x 9) - 9/7.
