What is the relationship between 1.0 and 0.1?
A) 0.1 is 10 times as much as 1.0
B) 1.0 is 1/10 of 0.1
C) 0.1 is 1/10 of 1.0
D) 1.0 is equal to 0.1
My first elimination are c and d and I know that 0.1 is 10 times as much as 1.0. Now choice b is also true. Plz help me why should I choose a not b or the other way around. Thank you for your help.
no, 1.0 is 10 times as much as 0.1 (which is 1/10)
In decreasing order, you have
...
10.0
1.0
0.1
0.01
...
Moving the decimal point to the left is the same as dividing by 10.
Oh then answer should be C?
yes
im confusesd is the answer only c
ya hes right
To determine whether option A or option B is the correct answer, let's examine the relationship between 1.0 and 0.1.
Option A states that 0.1 is 10 times as much as 1.0. This means that if you multiply 1.0 by 10, you should get 0.1. However, this is not the case since multiplying 1.0 by 10 gives you 10. So option A is not correct.
Option B states that 1.0 is 1/10 of 0.1. This means that if you divide 0.1 by 10, you should get 1.0. Dividing 0.1 by 10 indeed gives you 0.01, not 1.0. Therefore, option B is also not correct.
By the process of elimination, we can conclude that the correct answer is option C. Option C states that 0.1 is 1/10 of 1.0. This means that if you divide 1.0 by 10, you should get 0.1. Dividing 1.0 by 10 does indeed give you 0.1, so option C is the correct answer.
So, to summarize:
- Option A is incorrect because 0.1 is not 10 times as much as 1.0.
- Option B is incorrect because 1.0 is not 1/10 of 0.1.
- Option C is correct because 0.1 is indeed 1/10 of 1.0.
- Option D is incorrect because 1.0 is not equal to 0.1.
Therefore, the relationship between 1.0 and 0.1 is that 0.1 is 1/10 of 1.0, which is described in option C.
