This is a division problem. We need to divide the pounds in a bag by the weight of 1 brick in order to find the number of bricks in a bag.

3 1/3 / 5/6

---Make the mixed number an improper fraction

10/3 / 5/6

---Multiply the first fraction (10/3) by the reciprocal of the second fraction (5/6). The reciprocal is essentially the opposite and is found by "flipping" the fraction.

10/3 x 6/5

60 / 15

4

Answer: 4 bricks are in the bag

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x = 38

∠P = 26º

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angle in a triangle is 180

x + (x + 78) + (x - 12) = 180

Combine like terms

3x + 66 = 180

Subtract 66 from both sides

3x = 114

Divide both sides by 3

x = 38

-----------------------

∠P = x - 12

∠P = 38 - 12

∠P = 26º

Answer:

Explanation:

So you want to start by finding the area of the big square.

We know the width to the big square is 60cm. The length to the big square is

Big square

a

=

L

⋅

W

=

56

⋅

60

=

3360

Now let’s find the little square inside the bigger square. We see from the picture that the width is 34 and the length is 24cm. Using the same formula, we can find the area of the little square.

Little square

A

34

=

816

The area enclosed is the area of the big square minus the area of the little square.

=

So the area enclosed is
