Question

1. higher order thinking three boys cut out hundredths decimal models. derrick does not shade any of his models. ari shades half of one model. wesley shades two models and one tenth of another model. what decimal represents the amount each boy shades?

Explanation:

Step1: Determine Derrick's shaded amount

Derrick doesn't shade any, so it's 0.

Step2: Calculate Ari's shaded amount

One model is 1. Half of 1 is $\frac{1}{2}=0.5$.

Step3: Calculate Wesley's shaded amount

Two whole models are 2, and one - tenth of a model is 0.1. So the total is $2 + 0.1=2.1$.

Answer:

Derrick: 0
Ari: 0.5
Wesley: 2.1
