What is the number before 230000?
The number before 230,000 is 229,999. This is because when counting in a sequence, the number immediately preceding a given number is one less than that number. In this case, subtracting 1 from 230,000 gives us 229,999.
How many significant figures are in 0.8?
One. Preceding zeros do not count.
If some even number is divided by the number preceding even number the quotient is1.1 what is the number?
Let the first even number = 2x. Then the preceding even number is 2x-2.(2x)/(2x-2) = 1.12x = 2.2x - 2.22x + 2.2 = 2.2x2.2 = 0.2x1.1 = 0.1 xx = 112x = 22The first even number is 22.The preceding even number is 20.22/20 = 1.1 yay!Since the question has some potential ambiguity in the wording, I offer an alternate interpretation to show why the answer above must be the correct interpretation. Perhaps it mean an even number is divided by the number preceding it.For example, if the number is 20, the one preceding it is 19 and of course not even.In this case the problem is (2x)/(2x-1) =1.12x=(2x-1)(1.1)2x=2.2x -1.1-.2x=-1.1x=1.1/.2or 11/2but then 2x =11 and this is not even so this interpretation does not work.So the first answer is the only interpretation that gives a valid answer.If fact I did not even need to do the algebra. An even number divided by an even number results in an odd number and an even number divided by an odd number results in a an even number. This would be used immediately to see which interpretation is correct. It only requires a little multiplication of the number by 10's so see that.

If the profit was 5800 dollars in one year and 6500 dollars in the next year what is the percentage of profit?
If the profit is 5800 in year one and 6500 in the next year what is the percentage of profit? Does this actually mean "what is the increase in profit from year one to year two"? Otherwise I would need to know more information as to the percentage of profit with regards to: cost, the company average, or the variable that is to be compared, so personally I think the question should be rephrased.
