Make the 6 worth 10 times as much.
Write the new number?

Respuesta :

3.567 First, let's split up each digit into a separate number with it's actual value. So 5.376 = 5 + 0.3 + 0.07 + 0.006 Now let's combine these values multiplied by the new factors. So 5*(1/10) + 0.3*10 + 0.07*(1/10) + 0.006*10 = 0.5 + 3 + 0.007 + 0.06 = 3.567

The new number from the given problem after making the required changes is; 3.567.

We are given the decimal number 5.376

Since it is a decimal and we want to make changes to the individual numbers, let us write the decimal in it's broken down form as;

5.376 = 5 + 0.3 + 0.07 + 0.006

    We are told to make the 3 worth 10 times as much. This gives; 0.3 × 10 = 3

    We are told to make the 5 worth 1/10 times as much. This gives; 5 × 1/10 = 0.5

    We are told to make the 7 worth 1/10 times as much. This gives; 0.07 × 1/10 = 0.007

    We are told to make the 6 worth 10 times as much. This gives; 0.006 × 10 = 0.06

Adding them all gives;

0.5 + 3 + 0.007 + 0.06 = 3.567

In conclusion, the new number from the given problem is 3.567.
