If you are trying to create a garden of potted plants, you would find out how much soil each pot needs/holds and multiply that by how many pots you plan to use. then you would go to the store for potting soil, which let’s say came in smaller packs and you need to purchase multiple. use multiplication estimation to estimate how many bags you’d need.
I know this is a dumb example...sorry this is one I remember from my fourth grade math teacher ahah

A cake has a mass of 2.5kg. It contains 275g of fruit. What percentage of fruit is there in the cake
Travka [436]
The answer is:  "11 %" . 
__________________________________
There is 11% of fruit in the cake.
______________________________
Explanation:
____________________________________

275g is what percent of 2.5 kg?  

First, convert "275 g" into "kg".

Note the exact conversion:  1000 g = 1 kg .  

So 275 g = (275/1000) kg  = 0.275 kg .


0.275 kg = (n/100) * 2.5 kg ; 

→ (n/100) * 2.5 = 0.275 ;
____________________________
Divide each side by "(2.5)" 
______________________
→ (n/100) = (0.275) / (2.5) ;

→ (n/100) = 0.11 ;

Multiply each side by "100" ; 

n = 11 . 
________________________________________
The answer is:  11 % .

The volume inside of a sphere is V=4πr33 where r is the radius of the sphere. Your group has been asked to rearrange the formula
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Therefore,

r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3V}{4\pi }}

is the required r

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Volume of inside of the sphere is given as

V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}

where r is the radius of the sphere

To Find:

r =?

Solution:

We have

V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}   ......Given

3\times V=4\pi r^{3} \\\\\therefore r^{3}=\frac{3V}{4\pi } \\\\\therefore r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3V}{4\pi }} \textrm{which is the expression for r}

Therefore,

r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3V}{4\pi }}

is the required r
