Answer:

Step-by-Step Solution

0.4 = 2/5 as a fraction

To convert the decimal 0.4 to a fraction, just follow these steps:

Step 1: Write down the number as a fraction of one:

0.4 = 0.41

Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:

As we have 1 numbers after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 10. So,

0.41 = (0.4 × 10)(1 × 10) = 410.

Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(4,10) = 2. So,

(4÷2)(10÷2) = 2/5 when reduced to the simplest form.

A company sells a mix of peanuts and cashews. For every 3 ounces of peanuts, there are 2 ounces of cashews. A batch has 60 ounce
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Proportion states that the two ratios or fraction are equal.

As per the given statement: For every 3 ounces of peanuts, there are 2 ounces of cashews. A batch has 60 ounces of peanuts.

Let x be the ounces of cashew will a batch have.

then by definition of proportion, we have;

\frac{3}{2} = \frac{60}{x}

By cross multiply we have;

3x = 120

Divide by 3 on both sides we get;

x = 40

therefore, 40 ounces of cashews will a batch have for every 60 ounces of peanuts.
