Answer:

5/8 x 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To change division into multiplication, you must find the reciprocal by flipping the second fraction (note that if it is a whole number, as in this case, it is technically over 1).

(5/8)/(2/1) = (5/8)(1/2)

d. is your answer.

Dave can complete a sales route by himself in 4 hours. James can do the same job in 5 hours. How long will it take them to do it

Alexeev081 [22]

We can solve this problem by calculating the individual rate of working and equate it to their total rate of working.

If Dave can complete a sales route in 4 hours, then his working rate is

$\frac{1}{4}$

Also, if James can do it in 5 hours, then his working rate is

$\frac{1}{5}$

Let
$x$
be the hours that both will use to complete the sales route,

Then rate at which both completes this task is
$\frac{1}{x}$

Meaning if we add their individual rates we should get

$\frac{1}{x}$

That is;

$\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{1}{x}$

The LCM is
$20x$

So let us multiply through with the LCM.

$20x \times \frac{1}{4} + 20x \times \frac{1}{5} =20x \times \frac{1}{x}$

$5x + 4x = 20$

We simplify to get,

$9x = 20$

Dividing through by 9 gives;

$x = \frac{20}{9}$

$x = 2\frac{1}{9}$

Therefore the two will complete sales route in
$2 \frac{1}{9}$
hours.

tatuchka [14]

If the n-th term of the sequence is given by n ² - 2, then the 5th term is obtained by simply replacing n with 5 :

5² - 2 = 25 - 2 = 23

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: 2 2/3 cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation: If one batch represents 1/4 of the total number of cookies he needs, then it can be deduced that he needs four total batches. If it requires 2/3 cups of flour for each batch and he needs 4 batches, you would multiply 2/3 by 4 to get the answer.

2/3 × 4 = 2 2/3
