Five cats each ate 1/4 cup of canned food . How much food did they eat altogether?

Mathematics

Sauron [17]1 year ago
4 0

We have FIVE cats that each ate 1/4 cup of canned food.

Then, the five of them together ate:

5 times 1/4 cup This in mathematical expression is a profduct of an integer value (5) times the fraction (1/4) which we know how to multiply based on the problems we solved a few minutes ago:

5 * 1/4 = 5/1 * 1/4 = (5 * 1) / (1 * 4) = 5/4 cups

This answer can also be written as a MIXED number given that 5/4 is an IMPROPER fraction (a fraction with numerator larger than the denominator)

5/4 = 1 1/4

Not sure what answer your teacher would prefer. It depends on whether he/she wants you to use fractions or mixed numbers.

Yao Xin puts \dfrac{3}{10} 10 3 ? start fraction, 3, divided by, 10, end fraction liters of potting soil in each pot for plantin
slega [8]

Answer:

<em>She can fill 19 pots.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Yao Xin puts \frac{3}{10} liters of potting soil in each pot.

Suppose, the number of pots Yao Xin can fill is x

So, <u>the total amount of potting soil</u> in x number of pots will be:  \frac{3}{10}x liters.

Given that, she has 5\frac{2}{3} or \frac{17}{3} liters of potting soil. So, the equation will be........

\frac{3}{10}x= \frac{17}{3} \\ \\ x=\frac{17}{3}* \frac{10}{3}= \frac{170}{9}=18\frac{8}{9}

So, she can fill  pots.

Sliva [168]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Although I,m not completely sure, I do know that a cone and cylinder will not have the same volume if the base is the same. To back that up a cone is 1/3 of a cylinder of the same diameter.

Find the remaining trigonometric functions of θ based on the given information.csc θ = 257 and cos θ &lt; 0
katrin [286]
Cos(<span>θ) < 0, so we know it would be in Quadrant 2 or 3
then csc(</span>θ) = 257, but csc(θ) = \frac{1}{sin(θ)} = 257
==> sin(<span>θ) = \frac{1}{257}
it is positive, so now we can determine that is in Quadrant 2

sin(</span>θ) = opp./hyp both of opp and hyp are positive but adj suppose to negative because that way it leads the cos(<span>θ) < 0
</span>cos(<span>θ) = adj/hyp
</span>Pythereom to find the adj: 257^{2} -  1^{2}  = adj ==\ \textgreater \  adj  \sqrt{ 257^{2} -   1^{2} } ==\ \textgreater \  adj = 16 \sqrt{258}

cosθ = \frac{16 \sqrt{258} }{257} &#10;
tanθ = \frac{1}{16 \sqrt{258} }
cos<span>θ = </span>16 \sqrt{258}

52,300,000 in scientific rotation
tatiyna

Answer:

-5.230,0000

Step-by-step explanation:

Your number in decimal form is -52,300,000 . The negative sign remains unchanged. To get to "standard" scientific notation, we move the decimal point so there is only one non-zero digit in front of the decimal point. So, -52,300,000 becomes -5.230,0000
