6 0

The answer is 9

Explanation:

We know the total amount of spaghetti sauce is 20.5 cups; additionally, each container can be filled with a maximum of 2.5 cups of this sauce. In this context, the process to know the number of containers Mr. Rush needs to store all the sauce is to divide the total amount by the amount each container can hold.

20.5 cups of sauce ÷ 2.5 cups per container = 8.2 containers

This means 8 containers can be completely filled and a ninth container is required to hold the small amount of the sauce missing (0.2)

In January. The temperature in Fargo, North Dakota is -2 F. On the same day, the temperature in Cheyenne, Wyoming was 1 F. Write
zaharov [31]

Answer:

(a) 1 > -2 or -2 < 1

(b) 2 > 1 or 1 < 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

N = -2F --- North Dakota

C = 1F --- Cheyenne, Wyoming

Solving (a): Inequality to compare both temperatures

From the given temperatures, we can conclude that:

C > N or N < C

Because

1 > -2 i.e. 1 is greater than -2

or

-2 < 1 i.e. -2 is less than 1

Solving (b): Inequality to compare the absolute values of the temperatures

We have:

N = -2F

C = 1F

The absolute values are:

|N| = |-2|

|N| =2

|C| = |1|

|C| = 1

By comparison:

|N| > |C| or |C| < |N|

Because

2 > 1 i.e. 2 is greater than 1

or

1 < 2 i.e. 1 is less than 2

Can 24 7ths be equal to another fraction or be simplified in another way
Jobisdone [24]
To check if an improper fraction like like 24/7 can still be simplified, you have to find similar factors that can divide both the numerator (24) and the denominator (7). However in this case, there are no longer any common factors that can divide both of them. However, improper fractions can be represented in a mixed fraction form. 

A mixed fraction is made up of a whole number and a fraction. To change an improper fraction to a mixed fraction, divide the numerator by the denominator. The quotient should be a whole number and a remainder. The whole number in the quotient would be the whole number in the mixed fraction, and the remainder would be the numerator.

In the case of 24/7, dividing it would yield us 3 remainder 3. Therefore, the mixed fraction would be:

3 3/7
