Division and units |
2015-09-08 |
|
Kenneth pose la question : Hello:
Would there be a reason to divide a number without units by another number with units?
Here is an example:
35 divided by $5.00 or 35/$5.00
The answer cannot have units ($) because $5 X 7 does not equal 35 but instead $35.00.
$35.00 divided by 5 or ($35.00/5) and $35 divided by $5.00 or ($35.00/$5.00) make more sense.

Ratios and proportions with mixed units |
2010-05-13 |
|
Kenneth pose la question : Is it incorrect to have a proportion with numbers containing units that are not the same on both sides of the equal sign?
Here is an example: $0.07/$1.00 = ?/$0.89 is okay, but if I add a different unit (20 ounces) to one side of the equal sign but not the same unit to the other, is the proportion incorrect?
$0.07/$1.00 = ?/$0.89/20 ounces.
In order to determine the missing amount, the calculation becomes ($0.07/$1.00)/$0.89/20 ounces = $?, but is this proportion correct with the units as they are?
Two dollar-units cancel leaving dollar/ounces equals $?/ounces, but is this correct? Robert Dawson lui répond. |

Ray pose la question : Good Day! I was confused about lbm and lbf and slug. I knew that lbm is a unit

while other books treat lbm=lbf. other books also treat lbm=(lbf times 32.2)...
which is correct?
Is 1kg=2.205 lbm or 1kg=2.205lbf?
Is 1BTU=778.16 lbf-ft or 1BTU=778.16 lbm-ft?
what is the relationship of slug on these two, lbm and lbf? Janice Cotcher lui répond. |

Kenneth pose la question : Hello:
If the sales tax on merchandise sold in stores is 6%. The item is
multiplied by the sales tax of 6%. For example, the sales tax on
pencils worth $1.00 is 6% X $1.00 is $0.06 or 6 cents plus $1.00 for
a total of $1.06.
1. If the tax is 6%/$1.00, why doesn't the dollar sign as a unit cancel
after the multiplication?
Isn't it 6%/$1.00 X $1.00 or whatever the dollar amount is?
The dollar signs should cancel, but they do not.

Arne pose la question : at least it seems like for any integers n and k,
10k+3 and 10k+7 do not divide n²+n-1
I tested this for every n from 0 to 3200 (which means same for the numbers from -3201 to -1)
could this be true, or is it just coincidence, or am I just totally wrong? Richard McIntosh lui répond. |

The last digit of 2^28 |
2004-09-25 |
|
A student pose la question : I am currently enrolled in a math reasoning class and a math question I have to answer is determine the units digit in 3 28power. When I set up a table and keep cubing the numbers, I find a pattern with the last digits of the numbers that follow 1,3,9,7. My calculator gets to about the 19th power, and then I get an error. If I continued the pattern, would the units digit then be the last digit of 3 28th power, which would be a 7? Please let me know if I am solving this correctly and what a unit's digit actually is.

Greg pose la question : The conversion factor for inches to millimeters 25.4 It strikes me as very odd that it's not some infinite decimal. I could understand this if one system was derived from the other but as I understand it they were derived independently. Is the conversion 25.4 or 25.4000XXXXXXX? If it's just 25.4 then how did that happen? Harley Weston lui répond. |
