Answer 35

when adding.subtracting fractions, you have to have a common denominator.
when dividing fractions, you " flip " what you are dividing by, then multiply.
when multiplying fractions, you just multiply straight across

Answer 36

C. 4.5 > 4.49

Answer 37

ok I ran out of time :-(
So how did u get the last answer?

Answer 38

you basically follow the numbers from the right to the left

4.02 and 4.1 ....they both start with a 4....go to the next number....0 and 1....0 is smaller, so 4.02 < 4.1

4.5 and 4.49....they both start with a 4...go to next number...5 and 4....5 is greater, so 4.5 > 4.49

you kinda understanding ? Don't forget to pay attention to the number of the left of the decimal....for example : 23.3 and 2.33....the number to the right of the decimal is a whole number, so 23.3 > 2.33 because 23 is greater then 2

Answer 39

oops...follow the numbers from the left to the right

Answer 40

typo...the number to the left of the decimal is a whole number and the numbers to the right of the decimals are less then 1

Answer 41

Answer 42

Answer 44

yes...to the right of the decimal, it is ones, tens, hundreds...etc
to the left of the decimal. it starts at tenths, hundredths, thousandths
