What is the value of p in the question below. 10x9/2x4= px 5

ycow [4]

Answer:

p = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

$\frac{x^{a}}{x^{b}} = x^{a-b}$

$\frac{x^{9}}{x^{4}} = x^{9-4} = x^{5}$

10/2 = 5

Then

$\frac{10x^{9}}{2x^{4}} = 5x^{9-4} = 5x^{5}$

Finding p:

$5x^{5} = px^{5}$

$p = \frac{5x^{5}}{x^{5}}$

$p = 5$

Ricky has 3/4 of a bag of Skittles. He wants to split the rest between between his 5 friends. What fraction of the bag will each

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

3/20, with the assumptions below.

Explanation:

The question seems incomplete.

In order to show you the procedure, I make some assumptions.

Assuming that Ricky wants to split the full content of the 3/4 of a bag between his 5 friends, to find what fraction of the bag will each friend receive you must divide 3/4 by 5.

The operation is:

$\dfrac{3}{4}\div 5$

Convert the whole number 5 into fraction using 1 as denominator:

$\dfrac{3}{4}\div \dfrac{5}{1}$

Transform the division into multiplication changing the divisor into its reciprocal:

$\dfrac{3}{4}\times \dfrac{1}{5}$

Multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator:

$\dfrac{3\times 1}{4\times 5}=\dfrac{3}{20}\leftarrow answer$
