A basket contains 15/16 pound of oranges .One serving of oranges is 1/8 of a pound.How many servings of oranges are there

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

2/15 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

IF a basket contains 15/16 pound of oranges, then;

1 servings= 15/16 pounds of oranges

To get the number of servings for 1/8 pounds

x servings = 1/8 pounds

Divide both expressions

1/x = (15/16)/(1/8)

1/x = 15/16 * 8/1

1/x = 15/2

x = 2/15

Hence there will be 2/15 servings of oranges

The average weight of the class of 35 students was 45 KG. with the admission of a new student the average weight came down to 44

melamori03 [73]

The weight of the new student is 27 kg.

Average weight

= total weight ÷total number of students

<h3>1) Define variables</h3>

Let the total weight of the 35 students be y kg and the weight of the new student be x kg.

<h3>2) Find the total weight of the 35 students</h3>

<u> $45 = \frac{y}{35}$ </u>

y= 35(45)

y= 1575 kg

<h3>3) Write an expression for average weight of students after the addition of the new student</h3>

New total number of students

= 35 +1

= 36

Total weight

= total weight of 35 students +weight of new students

= y +x

$44.5 = \frac{y + x}{36}$

<h3>4) Substitute the value of y</h3>

$44.5 = \frac{1575 + x}{36}$

<h3>5) Solve for x</h3>

36(44.5)= 1575 +x

1602= x +1575

<em>Subtract 1575 from both sides:</em>

x= 1602 -1575

x= 27

Thus, the weight of the new student is 27 kg.
