Previous problem : From Andy's house to Billy's hometown you can travel by 3 roads. And to get from Billy's hometown to Willie's house you can travel by 5 roads. How many possible ways are there to travel from Andy's house to Willie's house? From Dan's ranch one road is built to get to Andy's house and two roads are built to get to Willie's house (see previous problem). How many way are there now to get from Andy's house to Willie's house?

Andy's house to Billy's hometown 15 ways

Andy's house to Willie's hometown 2 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Andy's house to Billy's hometown there are 3 roads. There 5 road from billy's hometown to Willie's house . In total there will be 15 ways to travel which is calculated by 3 * 5. For traveling to Willie's hometown there will be two ways. There are two roads that are built to get to Willie's house.

answer: 42

use a calculator to find that 845/73 = 11.575

the whole part of the answer is 11. multiply this by 73 to get 11*73 = 803.

subtract that result from 845 to get 845 - 803 = 42

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.
