Question

Enter the number that makes the equation true

Answer 1

80

Explanation:

First of all, before you do anything to compute the answer, you can see that there is (–13/100) on both sides of the equation. You can cancel them out, since they're the same thing.

Now, you're left with:

`0.8 = \frac{}{100}`

This is also read as 0.8 is the same thing as [how many] hundredths.

You should know that 0.8 = eight tenths.

So if you move the decimal point right once, you'll get:

0.80

Which is also eighty hundredths.

Your answer would be:

`0.8 = (80)/(100)`

which is 80.

To check your answer, you can also do:

80/100

Because the fraction bar can also be read as "divided by."

You will get 0.8.
