Question

which equation is true? 0.1 ÷ 0.35 = 0.35; 0.7 ÷ 0.35 = 2; 0.35 ÷ 0.7 = 5; 0.5 ÷ 0.35 = 7

Explanation:

Step1: Check first equation

Calculate \(0.1\div0.35\). \(0.1\div0.35=\frac{0.1}{0.35}=\frac{1}{3.5}\approx0.2857
eq0.35\).

Step2: Check second equation

Calculate \(0.7\div0.35\). \(0.7\div0.35 = \frac{0.7}{0.35}=\frac{70}{35}=2\).

Step3: Check third equation

Calculate \(0.35\div0.7\). \(0.35\div0.7=\frac{0.35}{0.7}=\frac{35}{70}=0.5
eq5\).

Step4: Check fourth equation

Calculate \(0.5\div0.35\). \(0.5\div0.35=\frac{0.5}{0.35}=\frac{50}{35}\approx1.4286
eq7\).

Answer:

\(0.7\div0.35 = 2\) (the second equation option)
