Find four_fifth of the difference between the product of 0.25 and 128 and the difference between 32.8 and 25.8

1 answer

To solve the problem, we need to follow several steps.

  1. Calculate the product of 0.25 and 128.
  2. Calculate the difference between 32.8 and 25.8.
  3. Find the difference between the result from step 1 and the result from step 2.
  4. Finally, calculate four-fifths of that difference.

Let's go step by step:

  1. Calculate the product of 0.25 and 128: \[ 0.25 \times 128 = 32 \]

  2. Calculate the difference between 32.8 and 25.8: \[ 32.8 - 25.8 = 7 \]

  3. Find the difference between the product from step 1 and the difference from step 2: \[ 32 - 7 = 25 \]

  4. Calculate four-fifths of that difference: \[ \frac{4}{5} \times 25 = 20 \]

Therefore, four-fifths of the difference is \(\boxed{20}\).
