Ricky has 3/4 of a bag of Skittles. He wants to split the rest between between his 5 friends. What fraction of the bag will each

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

3/20, with the assumptions below.

Explanation:

The question seems incomplete.

In order to show you the procedure, I make some assumptions.

Assuming that Ricky wants to split the full content of the 3/4 of a bag between his 5 friends, to find what fraction of the bag will each friend receive you must divide 3/4 by 5.

The operation is:

$\dfrac{3}{4}\div 5$

Convert the whole number 5 into fraction using 1 as denominator:

$\dfrac{3}{4}\div \dfrac{5}{1}$

Transform the division into multiplication changing the divisor into its reciprocal:

$\dfrac{3}{4}\times \dfrac{1}{5}$

Multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator:

$\dfrac{3\times 1}{4\times 5}=\dfrac{3}{20}\leftarrow answer$

The sum of the two angles of a triangle is 80 degree and their difference is 20 degree. find all the angles of the triangle.

Norma-Jean [14]

Sum of 2 angles = 80°

Difference = 20°

If we take away 20° from the sum, both angles are equal

⇒80 - 20 = 60°

Divide by 2 to find the smaller angle:

60 ÷ 2 = 30

Add 20° to find the bigger angle:

20 + 30 = 50°

<u>One of the angle is 30° and the other angle is 50°</u>

Given that the sum of the two angles is 80°

⇒ Third angle = 180 - 80 = 100°

Answer: The 3 angles are 30° , 50° and 100°
