pretty positive! :) hope it helps you
Your estimate of the baby pig's weight is 2 pounds. However the actual weight of it is only 16 pounds.
Let's solve for the percentage error of this.
=> 20 - 16 = 4 pounds
=> 4 / 16 = 0.25
=> 0.25 * 100% = 25%
Thus, you added 25% of the baby pig's weight
Explanation + answers
Because there are lengths going from 0 to 1, the lines must mean either decimals or fractions (we'll use fractions for this.)
1. There are twelve lines from 0 and 1, which we can use as the denominator for our fraction. This means the length of each line is 1/12.
2. In order to find where K's point is at, we simply need to count until we get to it. After counting, I see that K is on point 8/12, which we can simplify to get a smaller number. If we simplify once, we get 4/6, which we can again simplify to get 2/3. This gives us the answer K is on point 8/12 or 2/3.
The first answer, using a number line, is a good answer.
I have two other ways:
Way #1:
5 stones is more than 3 stones.
5 gallons is greater than 3 gallons.
5 pounds is greater than 3 pounds.
5 puppies is greater than 3 puppies.
5 hamburgers is greater than 2 hamburgers.
5 schoolbuses is greater than 3 schoolbuses.
We look around us, and we see that 5 of anything
is always greater than 3 of the same thing.
There's no reason that should change if the 'things' are eighths.
Way #2:
-- Get 2 friends to help you.
-- Take one good-size veggie pizza or coconut cream pie.
-- Carefully cut it up in eight (8) equal pieces.
Now each piece is 1/8 of the pie or the pizza.
-- Give 5 pieces (5/8) to the first friend.
Give 3 pieces (3/8) to the other friend.
-- Ask them to get together and agree on who has more.
$80.00 x 0.20 = $16.00
$80.00 - 16.00 = $64.00
the hoodie costed $64.00
you were left with $16 to spare
