Answers are 2000 and 2 11/40
Explanation:
- Step 1: Simplify 1000/0.5
⇒ 1000/0.5 = 10000/5 (Multiplying by 10 to numerator and denominator)
= 2000
- Step 2: Difference between 4 1/8 and 1 3/5
⇒ 4 1/8 = 33/8 and 1 3/5 = 8/5 (converting the mixed fractions)
⇒ Difference = 33/8 - 8/5 = (33 × 5 - 8 × 8)/5 × 8 (cross-multiplying with LCM)
= 165 - 64/40 = 101/40 = 2 11/40 or 2.53
