Answer:
15 days
Step-by-step explanation:
You have 5 cups of food, and you give him 1/3 a day.
So, <em>5 divided by 1/3</em>, which would get you 15 days. Or you could cross-multiply, meaning you multiply across, but in this case I just made them line up so you can see how to do it.
Answer:
<em>Each classroom received 120 gifts and the hospital received 12 gifts</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Division As Evenly Distribution</u>
The first concept we manage when learning about divisions is how to distribute an amount N among m elements such as everyone receives the same amount.
If the nature of the problem allows distributing decimal portions of N, then every receiver gets exactly the same amount N/m.
But things are different when the division must be an integer number. For example, if we wanted to divide gifts, we cannot give partial gifts. So the correct division is a matter of the study of integer numbers.
If N is divisible by m, i.e. there is no remainder in the division, then each element will receive N/m gifts. But what if they are not divisible? We must divide and take the integer part of the division and discard the remainder
We want to divide 2,292 gifts to the school, where there are 19 classrooms. If we divide 2,292/19 we get 120 and a remainder of 12.
Answer. Each classroom received 120 gifts and the hospital received 12 gifts
How many facts does it take to make triangles congruent? Only 3 if they are the right three and the parts are located in the right place.
SAS where 2 sides make up one of the three angles of a triangle. The angle must between the 2 sides.
ASA where the S (side) is common to both the two given angles.
SSS where all three sides of one triangle are the same as all three sides of a second triangle. This one is my favorite. It has no exceptions.
In one very special case, you need only 2 facts, but that case is very special and it really is one of the cases above.
If you are working with a right angle triangle, you can get away with being given the hypotenuse and one of the sides. So you only need 2 facts. It is called the HL theorem. But that is a special case of SSS. The third side can be found from a^2 + b^2 = c^2.
You can also use the two sides making up the right angle but that is a special case of SAS.
Answer
There 6 parts to every triangle: 3 sides and 3 angles. If you show congruency, using any of the 3 facts above, you can conclude that the other 3 parts of the triangle are congruent as well as the three that you have.
Geometry is built on that wonderfully simple premise and it is your introduction to what makes a proof. So it's important that you understand how proving parts of congruent triangles work.
