How many 1/8 teaspoons are equal to 4 3/4 teaspoons?

Mathematics

Vinvika [58]3 years ago

1. Convert fraction into same decimal.

To find this answer, we want to first convert the fraction so that the denominators are the same:

3/4 = ?/8

Divide the original denominator by the needed-to-be denominator.

8 / 4 = 2

Do reversal calculations

4 x 2 = 8

So, now that we know to multiply the original denominator by 2 to get the new denominator, multiple the numeriator by the same.

3           6

_  x 2 = _

4           8

So now, the new equation is:

How many 1/8 teaspoons are equal to 4 6/8 teaspoons.

(The reason why you must convert is because then you can simply say that the fraction is 6 1/8's, which means you just have to worry about the whole numbers.

2. Convert the whole numbers into a fraction to make it easier.

In order to convert whole numbers into fractions, first find the denominator your using. Which in this case, it is 8.

?/8

Now remember, for it to be a whole number, the numeriator and denominator MUST be the same.

8/8 = 1

Now remember, there are four 1's. Multiply the numeriator by 4, but keep the denominator the same or else the equation is ruined.

32/8 = 4

3. Add all your information together.

DO NOT forget to add the information you collected during the equation, or else you will get a wrong answer. Add the equation's final answer to the whole numbers final answer.

32 / 8 + 6 / 8 = ?

32 / 8 + 6 / 8 = 38 / 8

Well now, remember something. It is asking us, how many 1/8's were in the equation 4 3/4. We have transformed 4 3/4 into a whole equation, 38/8.

Now, all you need to do is look at the numeriator.

What number do you see?

You see 38.

The denominator is the correct denominator that you need. So, the number of the numeriator is the answer to the equation.

So, how many 1/8 are in 38/8?

38!

A planet's radius is approximately 1,534 mi. About two-thirds of the planet's surface is covered by water.
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

ok so the earth radius is 1534mi so if that is the radius than the area is 7.39×10^6so then you divide that into 3 pieces so each piece would be 2,463,333.3333 the nearest million would be 2,000,000

What is the 9th term of the geometric sequence 4, −20, 100, …?
sveta [45]
First, we are going to find the common ratio of our geometric sequence using the formula: r= \frac{a_{n}}{a_{n-1}}. For our sequence, we can infer that a_{n}=-20 and a_{n-1}=4. So lets replace those values in our formula:
r= \frac{-20}{4}
r=-5

Now that we have the common ratio, lets find the  explicit formula of our sequence. To do that we are going to use the formula: a_{n}=a_{1}*r^{n-1}. We know that a_{1}=4; we also know for our previous calculation that r=-5. So lets replace those values in our formula:
a_{n}=4*(-5)^{n-1}

Finally, to find the 9th therm in our sequence, we just need to replace n with 9 in our explicit formula:
a_{9}=4*(-5)^{9-1}
a_{9}=4*(-5)^{8}
a_{9}=1562500

We can conclude that the 9th term in our geometric sequence is <span>1,562,500</span>
