In the number 240.149, how does the value of the 4 in the hundredths place compare to the value of the 4 in the tens place?

drag and drop a fraction into the box to correctly complete the statement.

the value of the 4 in the hundredths place is the value of the 4 in the tens place.

a)1/10 b)1/100 c)1/1000

Therefore the correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) the 4 in the hundredths place will give us the value 0.04 =

ii) the value of 4 in the tens place gives us the value = 4 × 10 = 40

iii) to compare the value of 4 in the hundredths place to the value of 4 in the tens place  we divide the value obtained in i) by the value obtained in ii).

Therefore we get the value of the comparison as =

Therefore the correct option is C.

linear pair postulates

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
