\bf \cfrac{\quad \stackrel{gallons}{\frac{3}{4}}\quad }{\stackrel{minutes}{\frac{2}{3}}}\implies \cfrac{3}{4}\cdot \cfrac{3}{2}\implies \cfrac{9}{8}~g/m
\\\\\\
\cfrac{\quad \stackrel{gallons}{\frac{3}{8}}\quad }{\stackrel{minutes}{\frac{1}{2}}}\implies \cfrac{3}{8}\cdot \cfrac{2}{1}\implies \cfrac{3}{4}~g/m\\\\

\bf \cfrac{3}{4}\cdot \cfrac{2}{2}\implies \cfrac{6}{8}\quad \textit{clearly then }\cfrac{9}{8}\textit{ is larger than }\cfrac{6}{8}

I don't know how to answer the top two and I don't know if the bottom one is correct, help me please

1) How many 3/4 does it take to make 9/2?


     Now look at this, 3/4 x 6 = 4 1/2.  4 1/2 is the same as 9/2


   3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4 ---> takes 6, 3/4's to make 9/2

2)  How many 3/4's go into 9/2?


    This is the same question as the 1st one so the answer is 6 :)


3)  9/2 divided by 3/4 = ??


         Use the KEEP< CHANGE< FLIP method, so it turns into  I
                                                                                                    I
                                                                                                    I
                                                                                                    I
      9/2 x 4/3                       < -------------------------------------          I


  This is equal to 36/6 which is 6 :)


The answer is 6 for numbers 1, 2, and 3 :)

A cone has a height of 7ft and a radius of 4ft which equation can find the volume of the cone v=1.3 (7.2)
Margaret [11]

Answer:

The volume of a cone is:

V=(hπr^2)/3, where h=height and r=radius  

V=(7π4^2)/3

V=112π/3 ft^3

V≈117.29 ft^3  (to nearest hundredth of a cubic foot)

Kim and Sam went to Mexico Restaurant for lunch. The total bill was $21.58. They decide to leave an 18% tip. How much will the t
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

$3.88

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to leave a 18% tip on a meal that cost $21.58.

First, convert the 18% to an actual number that can be used in a calculation. For percents,this is always done by simply dividing the percent (in this case 18%) by 100%.So, the conversational term "18%" becomes 18% / 100% = 0.18 in terms of a real mathematical number.

Second, you need to find out what 18% of your $21.58 meal cost is.This is always done by multiplying 0.18 by $21.58, or 0.18 x $21.58=$3.88.

So, the amount of tip you are going to leave is $3.88.

Hillary is making a blanket for her mom. Three fourths of the blanket is green and the rest is yellow. Two thirds of the yellow
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Hillary is making a blanket for her mom.

Let the total blanket = 1

Three-fourths of the blanket is green and the rest is yellow.

The fraction for the rest(yellow portion) = 1 - 3/4

The Lowest Common Denominator is 4

Hence,

4 - 3 /4 = 1/4

Two-thirds of the yellow part has her name on it.

The fraction of the blanket that will have her name on it is calculated as

2/3 of 1 /4

= 2/3 × 1/4

= 1/6
