This happens when an answer to a problem that is a decimal is rounded in order to produce a meaningful answer?

You lose some accuracy in exchange for better understanding. If that is the only reason for rounding, then the unrounded version should be used for subsequent calculations.

What fractions could become a repeating decimal?
Any fraction with a denominator which has a prime factorization that includes any prime other than 2 or 5, it can produce repeating decimals.If the prime factorization of the denominator does not include 2 nor 5 then the decimal representation will be a repeating decimal.
The machine you operate produces 584 units during your 8 hour shift How many units would it produce in 2 hours?
It would produce 146 units. However, of you are doing this problem for homework, I'd recommend learning how to do it yourself. It's no use to you if someone else does it! :)
When fractions with the denominators of 2 4 8 16 32 produce terminating decimals fractions with the denominators 6 12 18 24 produce repeating decimals why?
Decimal numbers are based on powers of 10. The only factors of 10 are 2 and 5. Any denominator of the form 2^x*5^y will divide 10^x or 10^y - whichever is larger. In the above example, the first set of denominators are all of the form 2^x and so will divide 10^x. So all fractions will have decimal expressions with x decimal digits (assuming you start with the fraction in simplified form). The second set of denominators include 3 as a factor and so none of these denominators can be expressed as 2^x*5^y and so none of them are a factor of 10^z for any z. All that may sound complicated. At its simplest, the rule is that if the only prime factors of the denominator are 2 and 5, then you will get a terminating decimal. Anything else and you won't.
What is an equivalent division problem?
In equivalent division, you multiply (or divide) the dividend and the divisor by the same number to form a new problem that is easier to calculate metally. The new problem will produce the same quotient. ie: 2 divided by 1/2, if you multiply 2 by 2 you get 4 and if you multiply 1/2 by 2 you get 1. 4 divided by 1 = 4. This is the same as the answer to 2 divided by 1/2 (4), it is just easier to do in your head.

Explain what is meant by the basic economic problem?
Economic problem is the problem regarding allocation of limited resources for the production of alternative goods and services. in other words, economic problem is the 'problem of choice'. Since the resources are scarce and they have alternative uses, there arises the problem of choice regarding the use of these resources. The law of scarcity states that goods are scare because there are not enough resources to produce all goods that people want to consume. Thus, Economic Problem is the 'problem of relative scarcity' and the 'problem of choice' arising therefrom.The basic economic problems of an economy are given below:What to produce and how much to produce?How to produce?For whom to produce?Problem of fuller utilisation of resources.Problem of efficiency in utilisation of resources.Problem of economic growth.
