Answer:

(Sorry this is a late response) 15.38=101.508 or 101.5

Explanation:

You would divide 3 and 5 or 5 and 3 because 3 and 5 equals the fraction 3/5. The dividend is 3 and the 5 is the divisor. The quotient of this is 0.6. So the next step would be to add the 6 from 6 3/5 so this is the whole number so add it in front of 0.6 so it would turn into 6.6. The last step is to multiply the weight of the orange by the mg of vitamin C/oz that is 15.38 so multiply 6.6 by 15.38 this would equal 101.508 so you would just round this to a better answer and that would make it 101.5.

Tell me if I am wrong.. thanks

C personalities are organized and controlled. They take their time completing tasks accurately, like to research things thoroughly, and are always prepared. Because they put so much time and effort into everything they do, they hate to be criticized. They are perfectionists at heart and take even the smallest complaint personally. This makes them extremely difficult to confront. The best way to approach it is to focus on parts of the problem largely out of the C personality’s control or aspects of the problem they might not have considered. Make it clear that you appreciate all of their efforts and that you’re bringing something to their attention because it’s a variable that they need to have in the equation in the future. No matter what, don’t frame the conflict as a personal attack. If you do, the C personality will likely become resentful and go out of their way to avoid future interactions with you.
