The error Giovanna made in her calculation is multiplying 7 by 2 and adding with 5/8(step 3)

<h3>Fraction</h3>

Her calculation:

  • 7 (2 and StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction): 7(2 5/8)

  • 7 (2 + StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction): 7(2 + 5/8)

  • 14 + StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction: 14 + 5/8

  • 14 and StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction: 14 5/8

Her error was multiplying 7 by 2 and adding with 5/8(step 3)

Correct calculation:

7(2 + 5/8)

= 14 + 35/8

= (112+35) /8

= 147/8

= 18 3/8

29) Turns is the ratio of annual amount to average amount.

Cost turns = 57,982.85/15,545 ≈ 3.73

Sales turns = 130,935.60/35,388 ≈ 3.70

30) Consider January of the following year to be month 13.

7/16 to 13/14 is 6 months less 2 days. There are 31 days in July, August, October, and December, so 4 more days than 30 days per month. The total number of days is 6*30 -2 +4 = 182
