Answer 1

36.4 megabytes

Explanation:

• A file that is 256 megabytes is being downloaded. If the download is 14.2% complete, how many megabytes have been downloaded? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

we find unity by dividing 256 by 100

256 : 100 = 2.56

we multiply the unit by 14.2 to find how many megabytes were downloaded

2.56 x 14.2 = 36.352

we round to the nearest tenth and we have 36.4 megabytes (your answer)
