When we multiply a whole number with a fraction, we can think of the whole numbers as "over one"...
5 3 5 15
3 * --- = --- * ---- = ----
6 1 6 6
We can further simplify the fraction, by dividing numerator and denominator by 3...
15 15 / 3 5
--- = ------- = ----
6 6 / 3 2
Since this is an improper fraction, we need to turn it into a mixed number...
5 2 + 2 + 1 2 2 1 1 1
---- = -------------- = --- + ---- + --- = 1 + 1 + ---- = 2 --- or 2.5
2 2 2 2 2 2 2
Answer: 1/3
Explanation:
1/12 of the squad are suspended:
1/12 x 24 = 24/12 = 2
So 2 player are suspended
24 - 2 = 22 player
And some are injured leaving 14 left to play:
22 - 14 = 8 players injured
So 8/24 is the fraction of injured player.
But 8/24 = 1/3 so we can say 1/3 of the whole squad are injured.
Answer: Stay the same, 100
Step-by-step explanation: well 7%-7% still equals zero. So it’s not effected, I think.
All I can really remember is find the scale factor and divide it by the segment
1 29/50 is the simplest form of 158%
