Question

7 is one tenth of what number

Answer 1

`7:0.1=7:(1)/(10)=7*(10)/(1)=7*10=\fbox{70}`


`check:\\0.1*70=7`

Answer 2

70

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the number we are looking for is x

one tenth is interpreted into
`(1)/(10)`

Now, we know that one tenth of the number is 7, this means that:

`(1)/(10)` * x = 7

Solve for x by multiplying both sides of the equation by 10, we get:

`(1)/(10)` * x * 10 = 7 * 10

x = 70

Hope this helps :)
