Answer:

A. \frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{4} of the students wore shorts.

\frac{3}{12} of the students wore jeans.

Converting the fractions of the students who wore shorts and jeans respectively;

\frac{1}{4} = 0.25

\frac{3}{12} = 0.25

This means that the ratio of students who wore shorts is the same as that of students who wore jeans.

i.e \frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{12}

Answer:

A. \frac{1}{4} =\frac{3}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a case of equivalent fractions  which means that the fractions represent the same amount.

Why are they the same?  Because when you multiply or divide the same number up and down simultaneously, the fraction maintains its value. The rule to remember is:

What you do to the top of the fraction

you also have to do it to the bottom part!

Therefore, these fractions are actually the same:

\frac{1}{4} x\frac{3}{3}=\frac{3}{12}

How many acres of land are in a rectanglar parcel 234' * 878'
uysha [10]
An acre is 43,560 ft² because the customary system hates you.

Let's find out how many square feet the parcel is so we can convert it into acres.

The area of a rectangle is its base times its height.

A = bh
A = 234 ft * 878 ft
A = 205,452 ft²

Divide by 43,560.

A ≈ <span>4.7165 acres. (round as needed)</span>

A spinner and 4 cards are shown below:
yan [13]

Answer: 1 over 20

Step-by-step explanation: If the spinner has 5 parts to it at purple is one of those parts then the spinner has a 1/5 chance of it landing there.

If there are 4 cards and 1 of them are pink then there is a 1/4 chance of picking pink(if done randomly)

So if we mutiply 1/4 and 1/5, we get 1/20

That is how I arrived at my answer of 1 over 20

The diagonal of a square is x units. What is the area of the square in terms of x? square units square units 2x square units squ
STatiana [176]

For this case we have that by definition, if we draw the diagonal of a square two rectangular triangles are formed. If the diagonal measures "x", then the Pythagorean theorem is fulfilled:

l ^ 2 + l ^ 2 = x ^ 2

Where:

l: It's the side of the square.

2l ^ 2 = x ^ 2\\l ^ 2 = \frac {x ^ 2} {2}

We know that the area of a square is given by:

A = l ^ 2

So, the area is:

A = \frac {x ^ 2} {2}

Answer:

A = \frac {x ^ 2} {2}
