Use the properties of operations and rules for multiplying and dividing to solve:
(−3)÷(34)×(27)×(−516)÷(57)
(1 point)
To solve the expression (-3)÷(34)×(27)×(-516)÷(57), we can follow the order of operations, which states that we should perform any multiplications or divisions from left to right before moving on to additions or subtractions.
First, let's calculate the division: (-3) ÷ (34) = -0.0882
Next, let's multiply this result by 27: -0.0882 × 27 = -2.3794
Now, we'll multiply this by -516: -2.3794 × (-516) = 1228.0904
Finally, we'll divide this result by 57: 1228.0904 ÷ 57 = 21.53035
Thus, the value of the expression (-3)÷(34)×(27)×(-516)÷(57) is approximately 21.53035.
It’s wrong
I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct the solution.
To solve the expression (-3) ÷ (34) × (27) × (-516) ÷ (57), we can simplify it step by step following the order of operations.
First, let's perform the division (-3) ÷ (34) = -0.0882.
Next, let's multiply this result by 27: -0.0882 × 27 = -2.3814.
Now, let's multiply this by (-516): -2.3814 × (-516) = 1227.8984.
Finally, let's divide this result by 57: 1227.8984 ÷ 57 ≈ 21.548.
Thus, the value of the expression (-3) ÷ (34) × (27) × (-516) ÷ (57) is approximately 21.548.
Still wrong
Apologies for the previous incorrect response. Let's solve the expression (-3) ÷ (34) × (27) × (-516) ÷ (57) correctly:
First, let's perform the division:
(-3) ÷ (34) = -0.0882
Next, let's multiply this result by 27:
-0.0882 × 27 = -2.3814
Now, let's multiply this by (-516):
-2.3814 × (-516) = 1228.3304
Finally, let's divide this result by (57):
1228.3304 ÷ 57 = 21.5442
Therefore, the value of the expression (-3) ÷ (34) × (27) × (-516) ÷ (57) is approximately 21.5442.
Wrong again
Apologies for the previous incorrect responses. Let's solve the expression (-3) ÷ (34) × (27) × (-516) ÷ (57) correctly:
To solve this expression, we need to follow the order of operations, which states that we should perform any calculations inside parentheses first, then any multiplications or divisions from left to right, and finally any additions or subtractions from left to right.
(-3) ÷ (34) × (27) × (-516) ÷ (57)
= -0.0882352941 × 27 × (-516) ÷ 57
= -0.0882352941 × (-13892) ÷ 57
= 1223.52941176 ÷ 57
≈ 21.491579
Therefore, the value of the expression (-3) ÷ (34) × (27) × (-516) ÷ (57) is approximately 21.491579.
(−3)÷(3/4)×(2/7)×(−5/16)÷(5/7)
To solve the expression (−3) ÷ (3/4)×(2/7)×(−5/16)÷(5/7), we can simplify it step by step following the order of operations.
First, let's simplify the division −3 ÷ (3/4):
To divide by a fraction, we can multiply by its reciprocal.
So, −3 ÷ (3/4) = -3 × (4/3) = -12/3 = -4.
Next, let's multiply this result by (2/7):
-4 × (2/7) = -8/7.
Now, let's multiply this by (−5/16):
-8/7 × (−5/16) = 40/112 = 5/14.
Finally, let's divide this result by (5/7):
(5/14) ÷ (5/7) = (5/14) × (7/5) = 35/70 = 1/2.
Therefore, the value of the expression (−3) ÷ (3/4)×(2/7)×(−5/16)÷(5/7) is 1/2.
Use the properties of operations and rules for multiplying and dividing to solve:
(8/9)×(−3/4)÷(1/9)×(−4/5)÷(3/5)
(1 point)
To solve the expression (8/9) × (-3/4) ÷ (1/9) × (-4/5) ÷ (3/5), we can simplify it step by step following the order of operations.
First, let's simplify the multiplication:
(8/9) × (-3/4) = (-24/36) = (-2/3)
Next, let's simplify the division:
(-2/3) ÷ (1/9) = (-2/3) × (9/1) = (-18/3) = (-6)
Next, let's simplify the next multiplication:
(-6) × (-4/5) = (24/5)
Finally, let's simplify the last division:
(24/5) ÷ (3/5) = (24/5) × (5/3) = (120/15) = 8
Therefore, the value of the expression (8/9) × (-3/4) ÷ (1/9) × (-4/5) ÷ (3/5) is 8.
A water tank decreases by 10 gallons every 3 hours every day. What is the total change in the amount of water in the tank after 6 days?(1 point)

80 gallons
To calculate the total change in the amount of water in the tank after 6 days, we need to determine the change per day and then multiply it by the number of days.
The water tank decreases by 10 gallons every 3 hours, which means it decreases by (10/3) gallons per hour. To find the daily change, we need to consider that there are 24 hours in a day, so the tank decreases by (10/3) * 24 = 80 gallons per day.
After 6 days, the total change in the amount of water would be 80 gallons/day * 6 days = 480 gallons.
Therefore, the total change in the amount of water in the tank after 6 days is 480 gallons.
