The circumference of a circle can be calculated using the formula: C = πd, where C is the circumference and d is the diameter.
Given a diameter of 4.5 miles, we can calculate the circumference using the value of π as 3.14:
C = 3.14 * 4.5 = 14.13 miles.
Therefore, the estimated circumference of the circle is 14.13 miles.
Given a diameter of 4.5 miles, we can calculate the circumference using the value of π as 3.14:
C = 3.14 * 4.5 = 14.13 miles.
Therefore, the estimated circumference of the circle is 14.13 miles.
Express 811 as a repeating decimal. Mark the cycle of repeating digits with a bar.(1 point)
To convert 811 to a repeating decimal, we divide 811 by 9:
811 ÷ 9 = 90 with a remainder of 1
Now, we take the remainder (1) and multiply it by 10:
1 × 10 = 10
We divide 10 by 9:
10 ÷ 9 = 1 with a remainder of 1
We continue this process, multiplying the remainder by 10 and dividing by 9 until we see a repeating pattern:
1 × 10 = 10
10 ÷ 9 = 1 with a remainder of 1
1 × 10 = 10
10 ÷ 9 = 1 with a remainder of 1
The repeating pattern of the decimal digits is 1. Therefore, 811 as a repeating decimal is:
811 = 90.1 (repeating)
811 ÷ 9 = 90 with a remainder of 1
Now, we take the remainder (1) and multiply it by 10:
1 × 10 = 10
We divide 10 by 9:
10 ÷ 9 = 1 with a remainder of 1
We continue this process, multiplying the remainder by 10 and dividing by 9 until we see a repeating pattern:
1 × 10 = 10
10 ÷ 9 = 1 with a remainder of 1
1 × 10 = 10
10 ÷ 9 = 1 with a remainder of 1
The repeating pattern of the decimal digits is 1. Therefore, 811 as a repeating decimal is:
811 = 90.1 (repeating)
Express 8/11 as a repeating decimal. Mark the cycle of repeating digits with a bar.(1 point)
To convert 8/11 into a repeating decimal, we perform long division:
0.727 (repeating)
___________
11 | 8.000
We start by dividing 8 by 11. The quotient is 0, which we place to the right of the decimal point. We then write a decimal point and a 0 above the division symbol. Next, we multiply 0 by 11 and subtract it from 8 to get a remainder of 8. We bring down a 0 and repeat the process.
0.727 (repeating)
___________
11 | 8.000
- 0.000
___________
8.000
We then divide 80 by 11, which gives a quotient of 7, followed by a decimal point and a 2 above the division symbol. We multiply 7 by 11 and subtract it from 80, giving a remainder of 3. We bring down another 0 and continue:
0.727 (repeating)
___________
11 | 8.000
- 0.000
___________
8.000
- 7.000
___________
1.000
When we divide 10 by 11, the quotient is 0, followed by a decimal point and a 9 above the division symbol. We multiply 9 by 11 and subtract it from 10, which results in a remainder of 1. Since we have already encountered this situation before, we know that the pattern repeats.
Thus, 8/11 as a repeating decimal is 0.727 (repeating), with the cycle of repeating digits marked by a bar over 27.

Convert 0.72¯¯¯¯¯ to a rational number in simplest form.(1 point)
To convert the repeating decimal 0.72¯¯¯¯¯ to a rational number in simplest form, we can use the method of infinite geometric series.
Let's call the repeating decimal x:
x = 0.72¯¯¯¯¯
To eliminate the repeating part, we can multiply x by 100, since we have two digits repeating:
100x = 72.72¯¯¯¯¯
Now, we can subtract x from 100x to eliminate the repeating part:
100x - x = 72.72¯¯¯¯¯ - 0.72¯¯¯¯¯
99x = 72
Dividing both sides of the equation by 99:
99x/99 = 72/99
Simplifying:
x = 24/33
Further simplifying the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the greatest common divisor, which is 3:
x = (24/3) / (33/3)
x = 8/11
Therefore, the repeating decimal 0.72¯¯¯¯¯ is equivalent to the rational number 8/11 in simplest form.
