Can you please help me on this question for Algebra:
Write the word that the number
32/33 represents. From this word, take out the opposite of the word that means you get three strikes in baseball. Now unscramble the remaining letters to get what 12 is to 108 or 7 is to 49. What is the word we began with? What is the word we ended with?
To solve this problem, let's break it down step by step.
Step 1: Write the word that the number 32/33 represents.
To do this, we need to convert the fraction 32/33 into its decimal form. Divide 32 by 33 to get the decimal representation.
32 ÷ 33 ≈ 0.969696...
Step 2: Find the opposite of the word that means you get three strikes in baseball.
The word that means you get three strikes in baseball is "out." The opposite of "out" is "in."
Step 3: Take out the opposite of "out" from the word obtained in step 1.
From the word obtained in step 1, which is "0.969696...", we remove the opposite of "out," which is "in."
Removing the letters "in" from "0.969696..." leaves us with "0.9696..."
Step 4: Unscramble the remaining letters to get what 12 is to 108 or 7 is to 49.
The numbers 12 is to 108 and 7 is to 49 can be written as ratios:
12/108 and 7/49. These ratios simplify to 1/9 and 1/7, respectively. The words that represent these simplified ratios are "one" and "one."
Step 5: Determine the word we began with.
At the beginning of the problem, the word we started with was "0.969696...".
Step 6: Determine the word we ended with.
After following the steps, we found that the word we ended with is "0.9696..."
So, the word we began with is "0.969696...", and the word we ended with is "0.9696...".
