Answer:
(A) The two fractions can be 0.54 and 0.55 and something else also between 0.50 and 0.60.
(B) The two decimals equivalent to Laura’s decimal are 0.6 and 0.600.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Laura shaded 60 squares on her hundredths grid. Billy shaded 50 squares on his hundredths grid.
(A) Laura shaded 60 squares on her hundredths grid, that means;
[tex]60 \times \frac{1}{100} = 0.60[/tex]
Similarly, Billy shaded 50 squares on his hundredths grid, that means;
[tex]50 \times \frac{1}{100} = 0.50[/tex]
The two fractions that have a value greater than Billy’s decimal and less than Laura’s decimal is given by;
This means 0.50 < x < 0.60
The two fractions can be 0.54 and 0.55 and something else also between 0.50 and 0.60.
(B) The two decimals equivalent to Laura’s decimal are;
Laura's decimal fraction is 0.60
So, 0.6 is equivalent to 0.60
and 0.600 is also equivalent to 0.60
Hence, the two decimals equivalent to Laura’s decimal are 0.6 and 0.600.
