So when multiplying or dividing, students can use a fact from the inverse operation. ... In multiplication the numbers you multiply are called factors; the answer is called the product. In division the number being divided is the dividend, the number that divides it is the divisor, and the answer is the quotient.

When you divide and multiply fractions (whether the denominators are equivalent or not) i use this method called

KCF

K: Keep

C: Change

F: Flip

heres an example for division 5/10 / 2/3 you would keep the first fraction

change the operation ( x )  

and flip the ast fraction  3/2

now your equation should look like this 5/10 x 3/2  

5x3 = 15

10x2 = 20

so your answer sould be 15/20

Percent form: 75%

Decimal form: 0.75

Find the width of the rectangular prism when the surface area is 208 centimeters
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Use the surface area formula of a rectangular prism to find the width. (I have changed it to use the same terms given in the problem).


A

=

2

(

d

w

+

h

w

+

h

d

)


Because of the given information, it is known that:


A

=

208


h

=

8


d

=

6


The width is not know, so let it keep it's variable

w

. But substitute the other values into the equation:


A

=

2

(

d

w

+

h

w

+

h

d

)


208

=

2

[

6

w

+

8

w

+

(

8

)

(

6

)

]


208

=

2

(

14

w

+

48

)


Use the distributive property to solve the right side of the equal sign:


208

=

2

(

14

w

+

48

)


208

=

28

w

+

96


112

=

28

w


112

28

=

w


4

=

w


The width is

4

.
