Answer 4

The decimal equivalent of the fraction 39/50 is 0.78.

In this decimal, 7 is the non-repeating part and 8 is the repeating part.

Answer 5

To find out how much ribbon Joseph would need to make 11 bows, we can use the given fraction: 5/8 yards of ribbon per bow.

To find the total amount of ribbon needed, we can multiply the fraction by the number of bows:
(5/8) * 11 = (5 * 11) / 8 = 55/8 yards of ribbon.

So, Joseph would need 55/8 yards of ribbon to make 11 bows.

Answer 6

To simplify the expression (4^8)/(4^5), we can use the rule of exponentiation that states if we divide two numbers with the same base, we subtract the exponents.

So, (4^8)/(4^5) becomes 4^(8-5) which is equal to 4^3.

Therefore, the simplified expression is 4^3.

Answer 7

To determine if the number 0.054227406110177... is rational or irrational, we need to analyze its decimal representation.

A rational number can be written as the ratio of two integers, p/q, where q is not equal to 0. Rational numbers have decimal representations that either terminate or repeat in a pattern.

In the given decimal representation, we can see that it does not terminate or repeat in a pattern. The digit sequence "054227406110177" goes on indefinitely without a repeating pattern or stopping. Therefore, we can conclude that the number is irrational.

Note: To provide a more accurate analysis, more decimal places of the number would need to be provided. However, based on the given decimal representation, we can determine that it is irrational.
