1:3:4

1x:3x:4x

1x + 3x + 4x = 8x

8x = 56

x = 7

1(7) = 7
3(7) = 21
4(7) = 28

Check: 7 + 21 + 28 = 56

So 56 can be divided in the ratio of 1:3:4, and it will be 7, 21, 28

For a party, the family bought 24 pizzas for $12.50 each and 36 bottles of soda for $1.20 each. How much did the family spend on
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

1) The amount the family spent on pizza is $300

2) The amount the family spent on soda is $43.2

3) The amount the family spent in all is $343.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of pizzas bought by the family = 24

The price of each pizza = $12.50

The number of bottles of soda the family bought = 36

The price of each bottles of soda = $1.20

1) The amount the family spent on pizza = 24 × $12.50 = $300

2) The amount the family spent on soda = 36 × $1.20 = $43.2

3) The amount the family spent in all = The amount the family spent on pizza + The amount the family spent on soda

∴ The amount the family spent on soda = $300 +$43.2 = $343.2.

How do you change 0.16666 in a fraction
Natasha_Volkova [10]
Here's how to convert 0.16666 to a fraction...

There is not much that can be done to figure out how to write 0.16666 as a fraction, except to literally use what the decimal portion of your number, the .16666, means.

Since there are 5 digits in 16666, the very last digit is the "100000th" decimal place.

So we can just say that .16666 is the same as 16666/100000.

The fraction 16666/100000 is not reduced to lowest terms. We can reduce this fraction to lowest
terms by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2.

Why divide by 2? 2 is the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD)
or Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of the numbers 16666 and 100000.
So, this fraction reduced to lowest terms is 8333/50000

So your final answer is: 0.16666 can be written as the fraction 8333/50000

Mary​'s car will go 261 miles on 14.5 gallons of gasoline in highway driving.
suter [353]

Answer:

a) 91 1/6 gallons

b) 2502 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given a number of miles and a number of gallons for the car. The ratio of these numbers is ...

  (261 mi)/(14.5 gal) = 18 mi/gal

We presume this value is constant for this car. Then the questions can be answered by forming and solving a proportion:

a) 1641 miles/(gallons) = 18 mi/(1 gal)

Multiplying by gallons and dividing by 18 mi/gal, we get

  1641/18 gal = (gallons) = 91 1/6 gal

It will take 91 1/6 gallons of gasoline for Mary to drive to her friend's house.

___

b) Same deal, but the miles are unknown.

  (miles)/(139 gal) = (18 mi)/(1 gal)

Multiplying by 139 gal gives ...

  (18 mi)·139 = (miles) = 2502 mi

139 gallons of gasoline will let Mary drive 2502 miles.
