Question

Translate the following into an algebraic expression: A number is 30% of 20% of the number x.

Answer 1

0.06x

Explanation:

.2x*.3=0.06x

Answer 2

.06x

Explanation:

So 20 percent of x has to first be represented. So would do .2x. So then we have to find 30% of that number. So we multiply .2x*.3 and we get 0.06x.

I believe this is correct but tell me if I'm wrong
