The answer is B because when you divide by 2 you get half of the number. But when you divide by 1/2 you do the opposite, so you multiply by the reciprocal.

If three farmers share some bags of fertilizers in the ratio 3:4:5.if the smallest share is 18 bags.what is the largest share
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the ratios = 3 + 4 + 5 = 12

Smallest share = 18 bags

Ratio of the smallest share = 3

Let the largest share = x

From the question

18 ------------ 3

x --------------5

Cross multiply

3x = 18 × 5

Dividing bothsides by 3

X = 18 × 5/ 3

X = 90 / 3

X = 30

Therefore.

The largest share = 30

A certain stock starts the day at $273/8 per share. If it drops $21/2 during the day, what is its closing value? A. $247/8 B. $2
Elza [17]

Answer:

A. $ 24 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: A stock starts the day at $27 3/8 per share.

             Share drops $2 1/2 during the day.

To Find : Closing value

Solution : first we need to find how many 1/8 are there in 1/2

So, \frac{\frac{1}{2} }{\frac{1}{8} } =4

when share drops by $2 then  share will be :

$27 - $2 =$25


and \frac{3}{8} - 4(\frac{1}{8})


⇒\frac{3}{8} - \frac{4}{8}


⇒\frac{-1}{8}


So, 25-\frac{1}{8}


⇒24\frac{7}{8}

So, its closing value is 24\frac{7}{8}.

2 − 10n = 2 + 4n<br> What does n equal?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

0 =n

Step-by-step explanation:

2 − 10n = 2 + 4n

Add 10n to each side

2 − 10n+10n = 2 + 4n+ 10n

2 = 2 + 16n

Subtract 2 from each side

2-2 = 2+16n-2

0 = 16n

Divide each side by 16

0/16 = 16n/16

0 =n
