Step-by-step explanation:
The number 7273 is called the numerator or dividend, and the number 6 is called the denominator or divisor.
The quotient of 7273 and 6, the ratio of 7273 and 6, as well as the fraction of 7273 and 6 all mean (almost) the same:
7273 divided by 6, often written as 7273/6.
Read on to find the result of 7273 divided by 6 in decimal notation, along with its properties.
Answer (all three are correct):
1.21216(7)
7273/6000
[tex]1\frac{1273}{6000}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We can split this number, 7.273, into 7.2 + 0.073
7.2/6 = 1.2 because the decimal in 7.2 is one place to the left. So if you did 72/6 = 12, you have to add the decimal point 1 place to the left.
0.073/6 This one is hard
The decimal in 0.073 is 3 places to the left. Now we need to do 73/6 then add the decimal point 3 places to the left of the quotient or divide the quotient by 1000. 73/6 = [tex]12\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
We can't add the decimal point to a fraction, so we can divide it by 2
[tex]\frac{73}{6}/\frac{1000}{1}= \frac{73}{6}*\frac{1}{1000} = 73/6000 = 0.01216(7)[/tex]
The parenthesis around 7 means repeating
1.2 + 0.01216(7) = 1.21216(7)
In fraction form, 1.2 = 7200/6000
[tex]\frac{7200}{6000}+\frac{73}{6000} = \frac{7273}{6000}[/tex]
1.21216(7) is the same as 7273/6000 or 1 73/6000
Hope this helps :)
Have a great day!
