Given:
Bolt of fabric = 14 3/8 yards
length of fabric per skirt = 2 1/2 yards

Convert mixed fractions into improper fractions.

14 3/8 ⇒ (14*8)+3/8 = 115/8
2 1/2 ⇒ (2*2)+1/2 = 5/2

115/8 ÷ 5/2 

115/8 * 2/5 = 115*2 / 8*5 = 230 / 40
230/40 = 5.75

5 whole skirt

5/2 * 5 = 25/2 length of fabric used to make 5 skirts.

115/8 - 25/2 = 115/8 - (25/2 * 4/4) = 115/8 - 100/8 = 15/8 length of excess fabric

15/8 = 1 7/8 yards of fabric will be left.

Tim had $20.00 to spend on 6 pens. After buying them, he had $8.00. How much did each pen cost?
Kazeer [188]
If Tim had $20 to spend on 6 pens, and after buying them he had $8 left, that means that he spent 20 - 8 = $12 dollars on those 6 pens.
This means that to calculate the price of one pen, you just need to divide the money he spent ($12) by the number of pens he bought (6), and that is 12/6 = 2. Each pen cost him <span>$2.</span>

Round 128.59943 to 3 decimal places
Bond [772]
To 3 decimal places.

128.59943

Count three places to the right after the decimal point. The third digit is 9, and the fourth is 4. Since the 4th is not up to 5, we leave the 9 that way and so we can not round up the 9 to 10.

So it becomes = 128.599

Thanks.

Answer:

A and E

Step-by-step explanation:

um for some reason my answer was deleted…

anyways, I think its A and E because the equation should be g = 2/5t and 0.4 is equal to 2/5 so that means that E is also correct.
