If I cut a cake into equal parts and one slice = 3.333, where would I find the 0.001?​ (total of slices = 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

That is so because 1/3 is *not exactly equal to* 0.333333

0.333333 is an approximation of 1/3 which is correct to 6 decimal places.

So 0.333333 x 3 = 0.999999 which is approximately equal to 1.

If you want to be more accurate, you could write the fraction 1/3 everywhere and not write it in floating point form.

1/3 in floating point format will be 0.333333333…..and so on with infinite decimal places. This is because when you try to divide 1 by 3, you get a nonterminating recurring number after decimal point.

Its usually represented by a bar or dot on top of the recurring part

Ex. 1/3 = 0.3bar

(Sorry I can't get the bar on 3 by typing from keyboard)

But let's just say 0.3 bar is 0.333333…and so on to infinity.

When you multiply 0.3bar x 3 you get 0.9bar

= 0.999999….and so on to infinity.

These decimal point figures just a very great approximations of the fraction 1/3.

Hope this helps. Feel free to reply if you still have doubts.

yes because they have the same amount of green and blur marbles.

step-by-step explanation:

x = -4

step-by-step explanation:

- 20 - 4(x + 3) = 4x

=> -20 - 4x - 12 = 4x

=> - 32 -4x = 4x

=> -32 = 4x + 4x

=> - 32 = 8x

=> -32/8 = x

=> -4 = x
