Generally you would multiply
10 mm = 1 cm
480 cm = 480 * (1 cm) = 480 * (1 cm) * (10 mm) / (1 cm)
= 480 * (10 mm) = 4,800 mm

When do you know whether to multiply or divide in a word problem?
you multiply when you see this x
Is 17 over 20 equivalent to 20 over 24?
No, they are unequal, multiply the denominators by each other you should get 480. multiply 17 by 24 to get 408/480 (408 over 480) multiply 20 by 20 to get 400/480 (400 over 480) I multiplied 17 over 20 by 24 and 20 over 24 by 20 to see if they would be equal values this is a trick you can try to check if any fractions are equal.

Do you see any differences from an equation when you add or subtract numbers to both sides of the inequality sign?
No, the process is exactly the same. However, when you multiply or divide, you must be careful: if you multiply or divide by a negative number, the direction of the inequality must be changed, for example: -x + 3 > 15 (multiply by -1) x - 3 < -15
How do you change the numerator 5 and the denomanator 5 to a whole number?
divide it by it's self. it equals one whole. just divide like how many times does 5 go into 5????? well this is what you do 5/5 is 1 see its easy or add then multiply them together
Completes the sequence 20 5 30 6 42 7?
56205 (divide 20 by 4)30 (multiply 5 by 6)6 ( divide 30 by 5)42 (multiply 6 by 7)7 (divide 42 by 6)....as you can see the pattern switches from division to multiplication. From this pattern the next number will be mulitplying 7 by 8. so the next number is 56.
Is 2000 hour 83 days?
Since a day has 24 hours, divide by 24 to figure this out. Alternately, since you already suspect it is 83 days, multiply 83 x 24, to see how many hours that is.
