Answer:
A. The population of California was approximately two times the population of Florida.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the 2008 U.S. census, population of Florida = 2 × 
Population of California = 4 ×
= 2 × 2 ×
= 2 × population of Florida
Hence, the population of California was approximately two times the population of Florida and the correct option is A.
Answer:
(-1/3
)(1/4)=(-1/12)
Step-by-step explanation:
(-1/3
)(1/4)
For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get
(-1/3
)(1/4)=(-1/12)
This fraction cannot be reduced.
Therefore:
(-1/3
)(1/4)=(-1/12)
Simple equation and only requires one step to solve. Remember, a number and a variable juxtaposed means multiplications.
One step? I know. It seems more because I was slowing down the calculations for you so could understand everything happening. For someone who can do this in their sleep it would, for them, take one step.

This answer maybe long, but it includes all the essential steps to make it easy
This problem shows that the fraction of the time worked by three individuals need to be = to one person working full time.
It just means that the fractions need to add up to one. Since we got to know that one person works 1/2 the time on the project and the other works 1/3 of the time, let us use a variable to represent the amount of time the last person needs to work to have a total of 1.
This is quite easy:
variable = t(representative of the last person)
step 1: 1=1/2+1/3+t
step 2: keep the variable alone at one side
1-1/2-1/3=t
this step on a calculator will be easy, but dont have a calculator? Thats fine!
Lets have a common denominator
2 and 3 can be 6
1/1*(6/6)-1/2*(3/3)-1/3*(2/2)=t
6/6-3/6-2/6=t
step 3: just subtracts and get the answer
1/6=t
In conclusion, the third person must be working 1/6 the time on the project
