A tire shop had to fill 2 1 ⁄2 tires with air. It took a small air compressor 2 1 ⁄2 seconds to fill them up. How long would it

take to fill 8 tires?

Let 2_1/2 = 5/2.

Let t = time to fill 8 tires

(5/2)/8 = (5/2)/t

8(5/2) = (5/2)t

20 = (5/2)t

20 ÷ 5/2 = t

20 • 2/5 = t

8 seconds = t

Done.

If the divisor is 4 and the quotient is 8, what is the dividend ?

kolbaska11 [484]

<h3>If the divisor is 4 and the quotient is 8, Then, dividend is 32</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Divisor = 4

Quotient = 8

To find: dividend

We know that,

$Dividend \div divisor = quotient$

Therefore,

$Dividend \div 4 = 8\\\\Dividend \times \frac{1}{4} = 8\\\\Dividend = 8 \times 4\\\\Dividend = 32$

Thus, dividend is 32
