What is (1/2)^3?

A. 1/6

B. 1/8

C. 1/9

D. 6

Side note:
When you see this symbol ( ^ ) it represents the placement of the exponent. For example: 5^2 = 5 x 5 = 25
Also, when you see this symbol ( / ) it represents division. For example: 36 / (4 + 5) = 36/ 9 = 4

B. 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

(1/2)^3

This means 1/2  Multiplied together 3 times

1/2 * 1/2 *1/2

1/8

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you
