Responses
A twenty milliontwenty million
B ten millionten million
C twenty thousandtwenty thousand
D two million

Answer 1

The correct answer is D) two million.

To find the difference in population between California and Texas, we need to subtract the population of Texas from the population of California.

The population of California is given as 25 out of 2525, which can be simplified to 1 out of 101.

The population of Texas is given as 25 out of 25, which can be simplified to 1 out of 1.

To find the difference, we subtract 1/1 (Texas) from 1/101 (California):

1/101 - 1/1 = 1/101 - 101/101 = -100/101

This means that California has a population that is 100/101 times larger than Texas.

To find how many more people lived in California than in Texas, we can multiply the population of Texas by 100/101 and subtract it from the population of California:

1 * (100/101) = 100/101

1 - (100/101) = 1 - 100/101 = (101-100)/101 = 1/101

Since 1/101 represents the difference in population between California and Texas, we can multiply it by the total population to find the actual difference in numbers.

1/101 * 2525 = 2525/101 ≈ 24.900990099

Therefore, the difference in population between California and Texas is approximately 24.900990099, which is approximately 2 million.

Therefore, the answer is D) two million.

Answer 2

Deandre can dribble a basketball 71 times in 1 minute. About how many times could he dribble a basketball in 6 minutes?

Answer 3

To find out how many times Deandre can dribble a basketball in 6 minutes, we can multiply his dribbling rate by the number of minutes.

Deandre can dribble a basketball 71 times in 1 minute.

Therefore, he can dribble a basketball 71 * 6 = 426 times in 6 minutes.

Therefore, Deandre can dribble a basketball about 426 times in 6 minutes.
