Greetings!

"<span>A rectangular parking lot at the mega-mall is 7/10 mile long and 1/4 mile wide. How much fencing is needed to enclose the lot?"...

This question is essentially asking to solve for the perimeter. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is: 
</span>2(l+w)

Input the information we already know:
2(7/10+1/4)
Find A common denominator.
2(14/20+5/20)
Simplify.
2(19/20)
2/1(19/20)
38/20
Reduce to Lowest Terms.
=19/10
or
=1 9/10

1 9/10 miles of fencing will be required to enclose the entire lot.

Hope this helps.

HELP A GIRLL OUT I GAVE YOU ALL MY POINTS!! HELPP! 1. a. What is James’s new texting speed if he practices for only 1 month? ___
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

1. a. His new texting speed after one month is 2 + 1/2 = 2.5 characters per second.

b. After two months it will be 2 + (1/2) * 2 = 3 characters / second.

c. Answer is 2 + 1/2 * 3 = 3.5 characters/second/.

2. The answer is s = 1/2m + 2

3. To solve for m we write 8 = 1/2m + 2 → 6 = 1/2m → m = 12 months.

4. 10r + 4 = 8 → 10r = 4 → r = 0.4

5. The variable r represents the rate she must increase her texting speed by per month.

6. A scenario could be "Allison has 37 marbles in a jar. She took out 5 from the jar and wants to divide the remaining amount equally among her 8 friends. How many marbles does each friend get?".

How to calculate 12 divided by 4

Long Division

Here we will show you step-by-step with detailed explanation how to calculate 12 divided by 4 using long division.

Before you continue, note that in the problem 12 divided by 4, the numbers are defined as follows:

12 = dividend

4 = divisor

Step 1:

Start by setting it up with the divisor 4 on the left side and the dividend 12 on the right side like this:

4 ⟌ 1 2

Step 2:

The divisor (4) goes into the first digit of the dividend (1), 0 time(s). Therefore, put 0 on top:

0

4 ⟌ 1 2

Step 3:

Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (4 x 0 = 0) and write that answer below the dividend.

0

4 ⟌ 1 2

0

Step 4:

Subtract the result in the previous step from the first digit of the dividend (1 - 0 = 1) and write the answer below.

0

4 ⟌ 1 2

- 0

1

Step 5:

Move down the 2nd digit of the dividend (2) like this:

0

4 ⟌ 1 2

- 0

1 2

Step 6:

The divisor (4) goes into the bottom number (12), 3 time(s). Therefore, put 3 on top:

0 3

4 ⟌ 1 2

- 0

1 2

Step 7:

Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (4 x 3 = 12) and write that answer at the bottom:

0 3

4 ⟌ 1 2

- 0

1 2

1 2

Step 8:

Subtract the result in the previous step from the number written above it. (12 - 12 = 0) and write the answer at the bottom.

0 3

4 ⟌ 1 2

- 0

1 2

- 1 2
