Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number we need to find.

The problem states that 0.05 is one-tenth of some number.

This translates to the equation:

\frac{1}{10} \times x = 0.05

Solving for x, multiply both sides by 10:

x = 0.05 \times 10

x = 0.5

Hence, 0.05 is 1/10 of 0.5.

Assign x as the unknown number.

We have 0.05 equal to 0.1 times x.

In fraction form: \frac{5}{100} = \frac{1}{10} x   Multiply both sides by 10.

\frac{5}{10} = x

Which simplifies to:

\frac{1}{2} = x

Hope this clarifies it!

tester [12383]
The characterization of HIJK as a parallelogram arises from the fact that the midpoints of both diagonals coincide at (1, 0), which indicates that these diagonals bisect each other. To explicitly demonstrate this, we determine that the midpoints of the diagonals HJ and IK are equal, confirming HIJK's properties as a parallelogram.

A series contains 18 numbers and has a sum of 4,185. The last number of the series is 275. What is the first number?
Inessa [12570]
The formula for the sum of an arithmetic series is expressed as:
Sn=n/2(a1+an)
where:
n=total terms
a1=the initial term
an=the final term
given
n=18, an=275, Sn=4185
substituting these values into the equation results in:
4185=18/2(a1+275)
after simplification, we obtain:
4185=9(a1+275)
dividing by 9 yields:
465=a1+275
therefore
a1=465-275
a1=190

Conclusion: the first term is 190
