Question

$\frac{\left(0.1667\right)\left(0.8333\right)\left(0.3333\right)}{\left(0.2222\right)\left(0.6667\right)\left(0.1250\right)}$ is approximately equal to:

• A. $2$
• B. $2.40$
• C. $2.43$
• D. $2.50$

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

$2.50$

Given expression $=\frac{\left(0.3333\right)}{\left(0.2222\right)}\times \frac{\left(0.1667\right)\left(0.8333\right)}{\left(0.6667\right)\left(0.1250\right)}$

$=\frac{3333}{2222}\times \frac{\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{5}{6}}{\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{125}{1000}}$

$=(\frac{3}{2}\times \frac{1}{6}\times \frac{5}{6}\times \frac{3}{2}\times 8)$

$=\frac{5}{2}$
$=2.50$
