In the number 9,535 what fraction represents the value of the second 5 compared to the number represented by the first 5?

1/100

Step-by-step explanation:

The second 5 has a value of 5 (units). The first 5 has a value of 5 hundreds, or 500. The fraction you're looking for is then ...

... 5/500 = 1/100

Comment on place value

Each place has a value 10 times that of the place to its right. Looking at it from the other direction, each place has a value 1/10 that of the place to its left. Then the 5 in the units place will have a value 1/10·1/10 = 1/100 that of the 5 that is 2 places to its left.

u = -(6/7)w

step-by-step explanation:

place all values with 'u' on one side of the equation.

4u + 8w = - 3u + 2w

4u + 3u = 2w - 8w

further simplify the equation by solving the addition and subtraction.

7u = - 6w

make 'u' the independent variable by placing its co-efficient on the right-hand side.

u = - (6/7)w
