36x 2/3= 24 so u would have to use 24lbs of beef
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can factor all of the following equations to turn that weird, huge looking thing into
÷
×
. We know that division is simply multiplication by the reciprocal, so that whole equation will turn into
×
×
. Now we can cancel out some values if they are both in the numerator and denominator, which will turn that still huge looking thing into
which is our final answer, as it cannot be simplified further.
Hope this helped! :)
First you have to make both fractions have the same denominator, so you can multiply each fraction by the others denominator.
5/8
To
(5*6)/(8*6)
And
1/6
To
(1*8)/(6*8)
Now it's 6 30/48 - 2 8/48
= 4 22/48
Now reduce to
= 4 11/24
So, 4 11/24 is the answer
Set up two fractions:
8/x and 3/5
Set them equal to each other and cross multiply to get:
8*5 = 3x
40 = 3x
13.3 = x or 13 and 1/3 feet tall.
