Sam and his friend went out for pancakes. They ordered a huge stack of pancakes but the waitress didn't give them enough maple syrup. Sam got 1/5 of a cup of syrup and his friend got 1/2 of a cup. If they wanted a lot of syrup, they would have to combine their cup of syrup.
How much syrup would they have if they combined their cups of syrup?

Now solve.
First, find the common denominator
10 is the common denominator
1/5=2/10 1/2=5/10
2/10+5/10=7/10

Sam and his friend has 7/10 cups of syrup, now they have enough and are satisfied

1) The population

Is the set of all the terms that the teacher taught this semester and which he wrote down on the note cards and put in the paper bag.

2) The sample is every set of five cards that is selected by each student.

3) I think the sample is representative because all ther terms have the same probability of being selected.

Further, given that the cards are replaced every time all the students will face the same population when they are going to select a sample.

Sara and Jenny can both do flips in the air. The ratio of the number of flips Sara can do to the number of flips Jenny can do is
Snowcat [4.5K]

Wow! I never had problems this hard in middle school!

But you can do it!

First, we need to figure the number of flips Sara can do based on Jenny's.

Jenny = 120 and Sara - 120 x 3/8 (because she is only 3/8 of Sara's)

Calculate 120 x 3/8 = 45 flips

Now we know that Sara increased her amount of flips by 3 (45 +3 = 48)

And we know that Jenny decreased hers by 12 (120 - 12 = 108)

So now we have a ratio of 48:108, but we need to simplify that with factoring.

I am going to divide first by 2.

24:54

Then 2 again...

12:27

How about 3?

4:9

I think that is as far as we can go.

Sara is now doing 4 out of every 9 that Jenny does.

Check it!

108 (Jenny) x 4/9 = 48 (Sara) Yes! It checks.
