When you see "of", think multiplication:
4/10 of 20
= (4/10) * 20,
which reduces to (4/1) * 2,
which equals 8.
Nine tenths minus four tenths is five tenths, which is also a half.
Is six bigger than four?? YES! Then six tenths is bigger than four tenths.
eight and four tenths
A fifth is two tenths, so four of them is eight tenths, so yes.
No, 0.04 is four hundredths. 0.4 would be four tenths
Four tenths of a mile is equivalent to 0.4 miles. Since there are typically 20 city blocks in a mile, four tenths of a mile would be approximately 8 blocks. Therefore, four tenths of a mile is about 8 blocks.
2/5 or 8/20.
20 + 7 + 0.4
4/10 + 9/20 =8/20 + 9/20 = 17/20
Nine tenths minus four tenths is five tenths, which is also a half.
four tenths and two hundredths
2/10 + 4/100 = 20/100 + 4/100 = 24/100 4/10 + 2/100 = 40/100 + 2/100 = 42/100 Therefore four tenths and two hundredths is greater than two tenths and four hundredths
In words, 0.4 is zero point four, or simply 4 tenths (as the 4 is in the tenths column).
Is six bigger than four?? YES! Then six tenths is bigger than four tenths.
eight and four tenths
Four tenths = 0.4
Six-tenths (60%) is bigger than four-tenths (40%).
