To solve for, subtractfrom both sides of the equation., therefore,.

If you have trouble subtracting the decimals, you can multiply both of them byto get whole numbers, then subtract as normal, then divide your result by.

Make sure to follow the order of operations. Begin by combining all terms inside the parentheses:

Convert the fraction to a decimal and once again complete the operations inside the parentheses:

The answer is.

0.7 * 0.7 = 0.49

Trick: do the numbers without the decimals (7*7)

49; move the decimal of the answer the total number of spaces per each number (one for each 0.7)

0.49

In this question, simply take the percentage of each group that owns a minivan and compare the values. For minivans we look at the middle row which we recognize as a percent that must be converted to a decimal. Acknowledge that there's a different number of people between the groups A and B:

Group B: 0.15(5000) = 750

Group A: 0.22(3500) = 770

750 – 770 = –20; thus, group B has20 fewerpeople who own minivans than group A.

We must recognize that if x and y are both between 0 and 1, then they must be fractions (decimals). To determine their relationships, we can substitute values for x and y. Let's haveand(because y must be greater than x).

If x and y are both between 0 and 1, then xy is also between 0 and 1 (though smaller than either x or y individually).

The value of (xy)²will be less than (xy), since squaring any number between 0 and 1 gives a smaller result.

Finally,is largest, since dividing a larger number by a smaller one gives a result greater than 1.

Note that the substituted values for x and y were purely hypothetical; any values that satisfy the given inequality could be used.

Set the equation up as

Solve for, which equals

or

Therefore the percent sales tax is:

To solve, first divide both sides of the equation by, leaving you with:

Then simply divide the decimals, which will yield your answer:

.

If you have trouble dividing the decimals, you can multiply both of the numbers by one followed by a number of zeroes equal to the number of digits beyond the decimal point (one hundred, in this case), then divide, then divide your result by the same number (one hundred again).

To solve, first divide both sides of the equation by:

To do this division, you can divide as normal, or if you are having trouble, you can multiply both numbers by 10 to eliminate the decimal:

To solve, first divide both sides of the equation byso you isolate the variable:

Then, divide the decimal--if you have trouble doing so, remember that you can multiply both numbers byto eliminate the decimal, and then divide as normal:

To solve, first divide both sides of the equation byso you can isolate the variable:

Now divide. If you have trouble dividing decimals, you may multiply both dividend and divisor by消除小数点和分裂通常:
