The value 78 is 12 times of number 6.
A branch of mathematics known as algebra deals with symbols and the mathematical operations performed on them.
Variables are the name given to these symbols because they lack set values.
In orderto determine the values, these symbols are also subjected to various addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division arithmetic operations.
Given:
12 times what equals 78
let the number whose 12 times equals 78 be x then
12 x = 78
Divide both side by 12
12x /12 = 78/ 12
x = 6

A team played 25 games and won 17 of them. What percent did the team win.
To find out what percent of games the team won, we can turn this into a fraction represents the number of games the team won and all the games they played in all.
17 ÷ 25 = 0.68
0.68 × 100 = 68%
Therefore, the team won 68% of the games they played.
Great question. Let's let r be a rational number and s be irrational. Note r has to be nonzero for this to work. In other words, it's not true that when we multiply zero, a rational number, by an irrational number like π we get an irrational number. We of course get zero.
The question is: why is the product
irrational?
In math "why" questions are usually answered with an illuminating proof. Here the indirect proof is enlightening.
Suppose p was rational. Then
would be rational as well, being the ratio of two rational numbers, so ultimately the ratio of two integers.
But we're given that s is irrational so we have our contradiction and must conclude our assumption that p is rational is false, that is, we conclude p is irrational.
A proof by contradiction.
Let assume that the product of a rational number and an irrational number is rational.
Let and be rational numbers, where and an irrational number.
Then
Integers are closed under multiplication, therefore and are integers, making the number rational, which is contradictory with the earlier statement that is an irrational number.
Answer:
9 4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
9 x 9 = 81
you have 4 left over
place the 4 over 9 and that is your answer.
