amistre64 so do I multiply I still dont understand

amistre64 · Answer

yep, just multiply it all together.

it might be less error if you do this tho:

(3)(142)(142) will give you your answer

anonymous · Answer

yeah, that question with brackets is supposed to read as a multiplication sign between each bracket

anonymous · Answer

anonymous · Answer

yes.

anonymous · Answer

so i multiplied and got 60492 what do I do with the 9m

anonymous · Answer

you already handled it when you multiply (1/3) by 9.... so in words, its a third of one multiplied by nine is three... i thought that was pretty cool to get a whole number
