1. How could you use the product of 1/2 and 200 to find the product of 1/8 of 200?
2. How could you use the product of 1/3 of 300 to find the product of 1/6 and 300?
P.S We have started this kind of math since Friday so please answer and explain
since 1/8 = 1/4 * 1/2,
(1/8) (200) = (1/4)(1/2 (200))
similarly, since 1/6 = 1/2 * 1/3,
(1/6)(300) = (1/2)(1/3 (300))
To find the product of 1/8 of 200, you can first find the product of 1/2 and 200, and then divide it by 4. Here's how you can do it step by step:
1. Start by finding the product of 1/2 and 200:
1/2 * 200 = 100
2. Now that you have the product of 1/2 and 200, you can find the product of 1/8 of 200 by dividing 100 by 4:
100 / 4 = 25
So, the product of 1/8 of 200 is 25.
Similarly, to find the product of 1/6 and 300 using the product of 1/3 of 300, you can follow these steps:
1. Start by finding the product of 1/3 and 300:
1/3 * 300 = 100
2. Now that you have the product of 1/3 and 300, you can find the product of 1/6 of 300 by dividing 100 by 2:
100 / 2 = 50
Therefore, the product of 1/6 of 300 is 50.
