A satellite makes 26 revolutions of the earth in 6 1/2 days.
"A number expressed as a quotient, in which a numerator is divided by a denominator. "
"It is a method of finding the value of a single unit, and based on that value we can find the required value."
For given question,
A satellite makes 4 revolutions of the earth in one day.
⇒ 1 day = 4 revolutions
We need to find the number of revolutions in 6 1/2 days.
We can write the fraction [tex]6 \frac{1}{2}[/tex] as,
[tex]6 \frac{1}{2}[/tex] days
= [tex]\frac{13}{2}[/tex] days
= 6.5 days
By unitary method, for 6.5 days the number of revolutions would be,
= 6.5 × 4
= 26
Therefore, a satellite makes 26 revolutions of the earth in 6 1/2 days.
