When comparing answers on a group assignment, Jenny and Jeremy found that their answers did not match.

Part 1: Who do you believe has the correct solution for the group assignment—Jenny or Jeremy? In two or more complete sentences, explain, in mathematical terms, the reasoning behind your conjecture.

Part 2: Use long division to convert the fraction provided in each of the student's answers to a decimal number. Include all of your calculations in your final answer.

Part 3: Using complete sentences, compare your conjecture in Part 1 with your results in Part 2. Was your conjecture correct or incorrect?

Jenny has the correct solution for the group assignment. It is evident in her response because she uses the correct percentage of 41/100. Unlike Jeremy who uses 41/99. When using fractions or decimals the numerical range always extends to 100.

The decimal number would be 0.41.
