Jenna wants to convert a decimal number to its octal form.

The octal numeral system is the base-8 number system, and it uses the digits 0 to 7.

To convert the given decimal number into the octal form, we have to divide the given decimal number by 8 to get its octal form as the base value of the octal number is 8.

Therefore, the complete statement is:

"In the octal number system, you need to divide a number by the base value 8 ".

correct choice is b

step-by-step explanation:

when you calculate the average rate of change of a function, you are finding the slope of the secant line between the two points. for the function the average rate of change from point to point can be calculated as

to find the average rate of change from day 2 to day 10, note that at day 2, 8 houses were sold, so a(2,8) and at day 10, 2 houses were sold, so b(10,2). thus,

the 8 in 8,420 is in the thousands place so it's value is 8 thousand.

the 8 in 6,870 is in the hundreds place so it's value is 8 hundred.

divide 8000 by 800 to find the answer:

8000 / 800 = 10

the 8 in 8,420 is 10 times greater than the 8 in 6,870
