Write the steps to solve the following problem. Explain your steps as you solve it.
A certain computer can perform 105 calculations per second. How many calculations can it perform in 10 seconds?
rate * time = amount
so,
105 * 10 = 1050
I showed you the reason I took the step I did.
Maybe you need to write it out in a different form...
A certain computer can perform 10^5 calculations per second. How many calculations can it perform in 10 seconds?
Is what it's supposed to say, sorry!
That.....wasn't what I asked, but thanks anyway!
To find out how many calculations a computer can perform in 10 seconds, you need to multiply the number of calculations it can perform per second (105) by the number of seconds (10).
Step 1: Start with the given information: the computer can perform 105 calculations per second and we want to find how many calculations it can perform in 10 seconds.
Step 2: Write the mathematical expression to represent the problem:
Number of calculations = Number of calculations per second x Number of seconds
Step 3: Substitute the values into the expression:
Number of calculations = 105 x 10
Step 4: Calculate the result:
Number of calculations = 1050
Therefore, the computer can perform 1050 calculations in 10 seconds.
