1. Answer :
Weight of the mixture :
= 2.75 + 3.46
= 6.21 grams
2. Answer :
To find amount has to be paid for 10 pencils, multiply the price of one pencil by 10.
= 10 x 0.75
Since 0.75 is multiplied by 10, the decimal point in 0.75 has to be shifted to the right by one digit.
= 7.5
Therefore, $7.50 has to be paid for 10 pencils.
3. Answer :
Formula to find speed :
Speed = Distance/Time
= 756.9/10
Since 756.9 is divided by 10, the decimal point has to be shifted one digit to the left.
= 75.69
Speed of the train is 75.69 miles per hour.
4. Answer :
To find the weight of 100 cookies, multiply the weight of one cookie by 100.
= 100 x 10.654
Since 10.654 is multiplied by 100, the decimal point in 10.654 has to be shifted to the right by two digits.
= 1065.4
Therefore, the weight of 100 cookies is 1065.4 grams.
5. Answer :
Amount of money that Mr. James has to pay :
= 4(12.50) + 3(1.25) + 4(2.45)
= 50 + 3.75 + 9.80
= $63.55
6. Answer :
Amount of money that Jack has yet save :
= 450.75 - 256.46
= $194.29
7. Answer :
Amount of sugar that Jessica has left :
= 1.25 kilograms - 650 grams
Two quantities are in different units, kilograms and grams. Multiply 1.25 kilograms by 1000 to convert it to grams.
= (1.25 x 1000) grams - 650 grams
Since 1.25 is multiplied by 1000, the decimal point has to shifted to the right by three digits.
= 1250 grams - 650 grams
= 600 grams
8. Answer :
Since the store sells all the items with 10% profit, the item bought for $15 also has to be sold with 10% profit.
The price of the item :
= (100 + 10)% of 15
= 110% of 15
= (110/100) x 15
= 1.1 x 15
= $16.5
9. Answer :
Let x be the number.
Since 18.75 is taken away from x, 18.75 has to be subtracted from x, the answer is 2.46
x - 18.75 = 2.46
Add 18.75 to both sides.
x - 18.75 + 18.75 = 2.46 + 18.75
x = 21.21
The number is 21.21.
10. Answer :
Since 18.75K4 is multiplied by 100, the decimal point in 18.75K4 has to be shifted to the right by two digits.
18.75K4 x 100 = 1875.K4 ----(1)
Given : Multiplying 18.75K4 by 100 results 1875.94.
18.75K4 x 100 = 1875.94 ----(2)
Comparing (1) and (2),
1875.K4 = 1875.94
Since the above two decimal numbers are equal, the digits at tenths places also must be equal.
Therefore,
K = 9
11. Answer :
1 minute 15 seconds = (1 x 60) seconds + 15 seconds
= 60 seconds + 15 seconds
= 75 seconds
Given : Kevin was able to drink 750 ml of apple juice in 1 minute 15 seconds.
1 minute 15 seconds ----> 750 ml
75 seconds ----> 750 ml
1 second ----> (750/75) ml
1 second ----> 10 ml
10 x 1 seconds ----> 10 x 10 ml
10 seconds ----> 100 ml
Kevin can drink 100 ml of apple juice in 10 seconds.
12. Answer :
Since 2Y8.5 is divided by 10, the decimal point in 2Y8.5 has to be shifted to the left by one digit.
2Y8.5 ÷ 10 = 2Y.85 ----(1)
Given : Dividing 2Y8.5 by 10 results 20.85
2Y8.5 ÷ 10 = 20.85 ----(2)
Comparing (1) and (2),
2Y.85 = 20.85
Since the above two decimal numbers are equal, the digits at ones places also must be equal.
Therefore,
Y = 0
