In order to multiply or divide a fraction by a mixed numeral, it is best to have them BOTH in fraction form. 1) We'll convert 1 2/5 into an improper fraction. (1×5)+2 = 7/5
Now 6/7 ÷ 7/5
2) when dividing by a fraction, it is the same to multiply by its reciprocal. So flip the second fraction and multiply them: 6/7 ÷ 7/5 = 6/7 × 5/7
3) reduce them: there is nothing on top that reduces with the bottom, so we simply multiply
4) multiply numerators, then multiply denominators and keep them in place: 6×5 = 30, 7×7 = 49
5) so our final answer is 30/49

Claire said that 10/15 of her CDs are country music. Which statement could be true based upon this relationship?
never [62]

Answer:

C. Claire has 10 country CDs and 5 Jazz CDs

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{10}{15} means that 10 out of 15. So we can assume that in total she has 15 CDs and 10 of them are Country and the other is Jazz.

This would rule out choice D.

If we reduce this fraction then we would have:

\dfrac{10}{15} = \dfrac{2}{3}

This means that two-thirds of her CDs are country music. So this would rule out A and B choices.

Now C is correct because 10 country plus 5 Jazz is equal to 15 CDs. So we have the correct total.

The answer is C.

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

1/1560

Step-by-step explanation:

The chance of you winning is 1/40, since there are 40 students and you are one of those students. Since, you cannot win again once you win once, you are eliminated. This leaves us with 39 people left. The chances of your friend being chosen out of the 39 people left is 1/39. Now you must multiply 1/40 and 1/39. After multiplying, you get 1/1560.

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use cosine to solve this, which is adjacent over hypotenuse. The ladder forms a triangle with the house, and the side you need to solve for is adjacent to the angle. You can set up the equation:

cos(50)=x/14

Then you multiply 14 by cos(50) and get almost 9 ft (rounding to the nearest tenth of a foot).
