how would you work out one seventh of 6.3
divide seven into 6.3
Same thing, but more literally:
1/7 of 6.3 = (1/7)(6.3)
The only potential import of this way of showing it comes into play when one is asked something like, "What is 23% of 315?" In both cases, "of" indicates multiplication, and uses multiplication consistently for both makes it easier to remember how to do one if you remember how to do the other.
PS: 23% of 315 = (23/100)(315)
To work out one-seventh of 6.3, you would divide 6.3 by 7. Here's how you can do it step by step:
Step 1: Take the number 6.3.
Step 2: Divide 6.3 by 7.
- When you divide 6.3 by 7, you get 0.9.
Step 3: The result, 0.9, is one-seventh of 6.3.
So, one-seventh of 6.3 is 0.9.
