What is 56 1/4 as a fraction in simplest form?
1 answer:
We have to simplify %
This is a mixed fraction, with 56 as the whole number part and as the fractional part
Such a fraction can be simplified as:
Denominator of simplified fraction = Denominator of mixed fraction
and Numerator of simplified fraction = (Denominator of mixed fraction × Whole number) + (Numerator of simplified fraction)
⇒ Denominator of simplified fraction = 4
and Numerator of simplified fraction = (4 × 56) + (1)
⇒ Numerator of simplified fraction = 225
Hence, the mixed fraction in its simplest form is

Answer:
Sugar concentration of the mixed soft drink will be <em>32.5%.</em>
<em></em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Sugar concentration of first drink = 20%
Volume of first soda = 250 ml
Sugar in first soda = 20% of 250 ...... (1)
Sugar concentration of second drink = 45%
Volume of second soda = 250 ml
Sugar in second soda = 45% of 250 ...... (2)
Let be the sugar concentration in resultant mixture.
Volume of mixture = 250 + 250 = 500 ml
Sugar in mixture = of 500 ml ...... (3)
Total sugar concentration (Adding (1) and (2)) and equating it to equation (3):
20% of 250 + 45% of 250 = of 500
Hence, Sugar concentration of the mixed soft drink will be <em>32.5%.</em>
