25. There are 12 more apples than oranges in a basket of 36 apples and oranges. How many apples are in the basket?

Explanation

Let's assume the number of oranges in the basket is x. Since there are 12 more apples than oranges, the number of apples would be x + 12. The total number of fruits in the basket is given as 36. So, we can write the equation as x + (x + 12) = 36. Simplifying this equation gives us 2x + 12 = 36. Subtracting 12 from both sides gives us 2x = 24. Dividing both sides by 2 gives us x = 12. Therefore, the number of apples in the basket is x + 12, which is 12 + 12 = 24.

Explanation

The number 1230.932567 rounded to the nearest hundredth place is 1230.930. This is because when rounding to the nearest hundredth, we look at the digit in the thousandth place (3 in this case). Since 3 is less than 5, we do not round up. Therefore, the digit in the hundredth place remains the same (0), and all digits to the right of the hundredth place are truncated. Hence, the rounded number is 1230.930.

Explanation

To round 907.457 to the nearest tens place, we look at the digit in the ones place, which is 7. Since 7 is greater than or equal to 5, we round up the tens place. Therefore, the tens digit becomes 1 and the ones digit becomes 0. The correct answer is 910.00.

Submit
46. On Monday and Thursday, lunch cost $5.43 total. On Tuesday and Wednesday, lunch costs $3.54 each day. On Friday, lunch cost $7.89. What was the average daily cost?

Explanation

The average daily cost can be calculated by adding up the total cost of lunch for each day and dividing it by the number of days. On Monday and Thursday, the total cost is $5.43. On Tuesday and Wednesday, the total cost is $3.54 each day, so the total for both days is $7.08. On Friday, the cost is $7.89. Adding up all the costs, we get $5.43 + $7.08 + $7.89 = $20.40. Since there are 5 days in total, the average daily cost is $20.40 divided by 5, which equals $4.08.

48. Subtract the following numbers rounded to the nearest tenth place.
134.679     45.548      67.8807

Explanation

To subtract the numbers rounded to the nearest tenth place, we need to round each number to the nearest tenth and then subtract them. Rounding 134.679 to the nearest tenth gives us 134.7, rounding 45.548 gives us 45.5, and rounding 67.8807 gives us 67.9. Subtracting these rounded numbers, 134.7 - 45.5 - 67.9, we get 21.3. Therefore, the correct answer is 21.30.

Submit
49.
FLAMMABLE
INFLAMMABLE

Explanation

The correct answer is "Similar" because both words, "flammable" and "inflammable," have the same meaning. They both indicate that something is easily able to catch fire or burn. The prefix "in-" in "inflammable" does not negate the meaning of "flammable" as one might expect. Instead, it serves as an intensifier, making the word even stronger. Therefore, "inflammable" and "flammable" are synonyms and can be used interchangeably.
