Here's a good way to think about it - fractions are just division, right? So, just like with multiplication, the order doesn't matter. In other words, 3/10 of 1/2 meter is the same as 1/2 of 3/10 of a meter (just like 3 x 2 = 2 x 3).
So what is 1/2 of 3/10? well you could say it is 1.5/10 (divide your 3/10 by 2 to get 1.5/10), OR you could say 3/20 (dividing by 2 in the numerator is the same as multiplying by 2 in the denominator).
So 3/10 of 1/2 of a meter is 3/20 of a meter. 3/20 of 100cm = (100)*3/20.
Well 300/20 = 15 soo 3/20 of a meter is 15cm.
what is half of one tenth
Yes a half is bigger tan a tenth. A half =50% and a tenth =10%
That's going to depend on exactly what the '78.4' is. You haven't indicated the units of the 78.4 so there are a great many possible answers. Here are a few of them: -- If the 78.4 is a number of meters, then the nearest tenth of a meter is 78.4 meters. -- If it's 78.4 centimeters, then the nearest tenth of a meter is 0.8 meters. -- If it's 78.4 millimeters, then the nearest tenth of a meter is 0.1 meter. -- If it's 78.4 kilometers, then the nearest tenth of a meter is 78,400 meters. -- If it's 78.4 yards, then the nearest tenth of a meter is 71.7 meters. -- If it's 78.4 feet, then the nearest tenth of a meter is 23.9 meters. -- If it's 78.4 inches, then the nearest tenth of a meter is 2.0 meters. -- If it's 78.4 smoots, then the nearest tenth of a meter is 133.4 meters. -- If it's 78.4 furlongs, then the nearest tenth of a meter is 15,771.6 meters. -- If the 78.4 has no units, then it's just a naked number with no physical significance. It doesn't represent a length, or anything else, and it can't be converted to any metric quantity.
If you are talking about 31.30 meters, then rounding to the nearest tenth of a meter would give you 31.3 meters.
A Decimetre
one-tenth of a half is always one-twentieth. 1/20 of a meter is 5 centimeters.
three fifths
4363m to the nearest tenth of a meter is 4363.0m
7.25 meters
1 km = 1000 meter 1 meter = 0.001 km one tenth of a meter = 0.1 meter = 0.0001 km
One and one-half plus one-tenth equals 1 and six tenths or one and three fifths.
Half of a tenth is 0.05
what is half of one tenth
1 tenth of a cm and 1 thousandth of a meter are equal lengths.
six tenths or three fifths
Three fifths is a tenth part more than a half. -ie Half is 5/10 - 3/5 is 6/10.
Yes a half is bigger tan a tenth. A half =50% and a tenth =10%
