To check if your answer of 5400.54 is correct, we can use the following steps:
Step 1: Convert the mixed fraction "11 1/9%" into a decimal. To do this, we need to convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction and then divide it by 100.
11 1/9% = (11+1/9)% = 100/9%
Converting 100/9% to decimal form:
100/9% = (100/9) ÷ 100 = 1.111...
So, 11 1/9% is equal to approximately 0.0111 (rounded to four decimal places).
Step 2: Let's set up an equation to solve for the unknown number:
0.0111 * x = 600
To find the value of x, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.0111:
x = 600 ÷ 0.0111 ≈ 5405.405...
Therefore, the correct answer is approximately 5405.405, not 5400.54.
Hence, your answer of 5400.54 is not correct.
