Sue's teacher asked her to find 42.6 divided by ten to the power of two. how many places and in which direction should sue move the decimal point to get the correct quotient?

she will move it twice towards the left direction

Step-by-step explanation:

10 to the power of 2 is 100

42.6/100 = 0.426

Whenever you are dividing by hundred, when you shift the decimal once to the left, one of the zero will go away, when you shift the decimal again to the left the remaining zero will go away.

the above table 1 will calculate the population size (n) after a certain length of time (t). all you need to do is plug in the initial population number (no), the growth rate (r) and the length of time (t). the constant (e) is already entered into the equation. it stands for the base of the natural logarithms (approximately 2.71828). growth rate (r) and time (t) must be expressed in the same unit of time, such as years, days, hours or minutes. for humans, population growth rate is based on one year. if a population of people grew from 1000 to 1040 in one year, then the percent increase or annual growth rate is 40/1000 x 100 = 4 percent.
