Explain the rules for multiplication and division to convert units. How do you know when to multiply and when to divide to convert units of measurement

The basic rule is: If you need to convert from a larger unit to a smaller unit, multiply. If you need to convert from a smaller unit to a larger unit, divide. You will make the number smaller and, as you already know, division is all about making numbers smaller.

step-by-step explanation:

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is
