1. You have that Karen made 40 cakes and she gives 1/5 to Andrew and 10% to Chris, then you have:

40 cakes=5/5=1
1/5 to Andrew⇒40x1/5=8
10% to Chris=40x0.10=4

1/5----8
x----4

x=4(1/5)/8
x=1/10

2. The fraction of the 40 cakes that she have left is:

1-1/5-1/10

You have 1 case of soap bars and there are 150 bars in a case. You use 300 bars of soap per day. How many cases do you need to o

diamong [38]

Answer:
14 cases

Explanation:
First, we will need to find the number of cases needed per day:
We know that one case includes 150 bars and that the daily consumption is 300 bars. To know the number of cases needed daily, we will use cross multiplication as follows:
1 case .............> 150 bars
?? cases .........> 300 bars
number of cases needed daily = $\frac{300*1}{150}$ 
number of cases needed daily = 2 cases

Then, we will get the number of cases needed weekly (7 days):
We know that 2 cases are needed daily. To know the number of cases needed weekly (7 days), we will simply use cross multiplication as follows:
1 day .............> 2 cases
7 days ...........> ?? cases
number of cases needed weekly = $\frac{7*2}{1}$ 
number of cases needed weekly = 14 cases

Hope this helps :)

Simplify the expression

damaskus [11]

First, simplify the denominator into 1+3i. Then multiply both the numerator and denominator by 1-3i to rationalize the denominator. Then, the numerator becomes i+3, and the denominator becomes 10. So, the first answer is correct.
