How can you express 499 to find the product 499×5 using mental math explain

So the answer would be 2495.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write 499 as  500 - 1

Because we can easily multiply 500 to 5 compare to 499 to 5.

So product of 499 × 5 = (500 - 1) × 5

                                  = 500 × 5 - ( 1 × 5 = 5 )

                                  = 2500 - 5 = 2495

So the answer would be 2495.

answer: the answer is one of

step-by-step explanation:   we are given to write a proper fraction where the whole is divided into an even number of equal parts less than ten, and an odd number of those parts exist.

an even number less than 10 may be one of 2, 4, 6 or 8. so, the whole may be one of these four evens.

now, an odd number of these parts must exist, so the numerator must be an odd number, one of 1, 3, 5 or 7. it cannot be 9 because then the fraction will become improper.

thus, our fraction may be one of the following
