What is 53 and 1/3 as a decimal and please show how to turn it into a decimal

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Well,
First I would like to explain how to convert a mixed number or fraction into a decimal.
1. First if it's a mixed number change it into an improper fraction.
2. After that divide the numerator by the denominator.
3. Your finished as simple as that.
NOW FOR THE ACTUAL ANSWER
well I turned 53 1/3 into an improper fraction which came out to be 160/3. After the division the decimal came to be 53.3333(etc)
I did it in the calculator and everything so I'm almost positive I did this correctly haha)
I hope I helped.
And I really enjoyed answering this since I knew you weren't just looking for an answer but for the reason behind it and how to do it hahah.
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

53.3 (the three is repeated)

Step-by-step explanation: To convert 53 1/3 to decimal you can either use the long division method , or you can divide the numerator 160 ([53×3]+1) by the denominator 3 using a calculator.

Hope this helps!

A triangle has an angle that measures 80°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 7:13. What are the measures of those two angles?

Answers

You can make a system of equation using the fact that all angles in a triangle need to add up to 180 and that 7:13 can be thought of as 7/13.
lets make one angle a and the other angle b.

a+b=100  (a+b+80=180)
a÷b=7/13

You can solve for a in the second equation to get a=7b/13 and then you can substitute that in for a in the first equation to get (7b/13)+b=100 and then solve for b as follows.
(7/13)b+b=100
b(7/13+1)=100
b(20/13)=100
b=65
You can then solve for a in from plugging in b to the first equation to get a=35.
Therefore the 2 other angles are 35° and 65°. 

You can prove this by showing that 35+65+80=180 and that 35/65=7/13.

I hope this helps.  Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.

What is 7a - 3 = 3 + 6a

Answers

Firstly, you add 3 to both sides (as you've got to eliminate the -3), and this gives you;
7a=6+6a.
Then in order to get a alone, you need to subtract 6a from the right hand side (in order to counter balance) and this gives you;
1a=6
Therefore, a is equal to 6

The sum of 2 numbers is 76. 1/3 of the first number plus 1/2 of the second number is 34. What are the two numbers? What is the difference between the second number and first number?

Answers

Ok so we have 2 equations here...

x + y = 76
1/3x + 1/2y = 34

First solve for x in the 1st equation...

x + y = 76
x = 76 - y

Now substitute 76-y for x in the 2nd equation...

1/3x + 1/2y = 34
1/3(76-y) + 1/2y = 34
76/3 - 1/3y + 1/2y = 34
-1/3y + 1/2y = 34 - 76/3
-2/6y + 3/6y = 34 - 25 1/3
1/6y = 8 2/3
y = 8 2/3 ÷ 1/6
y = 8 2/3 × 6
y = 52

Now substitute 52 into the 1st equation for y

x + y = 76
x + 52 = 76
x = 76 - 52
x = 24

The 2 numbers are 24 and 52.

The difference between the numbers is
52 - 24 = 28
28 difference and the numbers are 13 and 12 121 21 212 12 55 65 545 46 54 6 5 6 6666666 777.0-0000000

What is the range of possible sizes for side x? _ < x < _

Answers

Answer:

  0.5 < x < 16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The third side of the triangle must be longer than the difference of the other two sides:

  x > (8.5 -8.0)

  x > 0.5

And it must be shorter than their sum:

  x < (8.5 +8.0)

  x < 16.5

The third side must be in the range ...

  0.5 < x < 16.5

_____

These limits are a direct consequence of the triangle inequality, which requires the sum of the two shortest sides exceed the length of the longest side.
