At the shelter there are 15 dogs 12 cats three snakes and five parakeets which animal makes up approximately 14% of the animals in the shelter

At the shelter there are 15 dogs 12 cats three snakes and five parakeets which animal makes up approximately 14% of the animals in the shelter

Number of animals in the shelter is 15 + 12 + 3 + 5 = 35

dogs 15/35 x 100 = 43%

cats 12/35 x 100 = 34%

snakes 3/35 x 100 = 8%

parakeets 5/35 x 100 = 14%

five parakeets is approximately 14% of the animals in the shelter

step-by-step explanation:

in the absence of parentheses, i will have to make some assumptions:   i interpret your (3x+5/y^6)(4y^3/5)​ to mean:

3x + 5     4y^(3/5)       (3x + 5)(4)

* =

    y^6             1               y^(6-3/5)

if this is not what you expected, repost your question using parentheses to indicate whether you meant

4y^3

    or   4y^(3/5)

    5

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.
