My Math Midterm is tommorow and I am stumped... how do you turn 1 and 3/8 into a decimal... I know the answer is 1.375 but I just copied down what the teacher wrote on the board.

What is a Fact Family? 2004-01-13
Keisha pose la question :
I am helping my child with his homework. The worksheet we are trying to do ask the child to choose a number from inside of a circle and then one from inside of a triangle and use the number to build a fact family. The title of the worksheet is "Building a Fact Family House". I noticed that Silver Burdett Ginn,Inc. was the publisher of the book the worksheet came from so I was on the website trying to find an answer to my question. My question is "What is a Fact Family?"

The area of a lot 2004-01-09
Lea pose la question :

I have a problem. I am interested in purchasing a piece of property which has the following dimensions. It is 259.10 Feet on the north side x 61.20 Feet on the east side x 217.80 Feet on the south side x 196.70 Feet on the west side. It looks like an irregular rectangle shape. How do you figure out the square footage on this irregular sized property, and what is the correct square footage answer.

I have attached a survey map.

Dividing zero by infinity 2004-01-08
Jason pose la question :
What do you get when dividing zero by infinity? Our Calculus teacher was pretty sure that the expression was indeterminate from. However, if this is so...Why? Zero divded by any number (except zero) is zero, true. Any number (except infinite) over infinite is zero. So, why isn't Zero divided by infinite zero. A simpler way if I had 4 potatoes and was to split them among 2 friends, each friend would get 2 potatoes. However, if I had 0 potatoes and split them a infinite number of ways, each person would still have 0. Explain please!

Unusual occurances 2004-01-08
Martin pose la question :
My wife and I have a question about the probability of something that happened to us a few years ago. So far, no one has been able to give me even an approximate answer. On my 32nd birthday, my wife and I went out to eat at local Japanese hibachi style restaurant. At the restaurant, couples/families are sat together around the hibachi where the cook performs a show. There was a fifteen minute or so wait, so my wife and I sat in the lounge waiting for our name to be called. When they called our names for the reservation, this is what happened. The first group called was the Martin family. Then they called the Francis family. We were the next family to be called, the Ashton family. My full name is Martin Francis Ashton! I think the odds of that happening to someone are very unlikely, but it did, and there is more. Next, we were all sat at the same table in that order, "Martin" family, "Francis" family, then us, the "Ashton" family. Again, it formed my full name!
