Hello!  So, 11/2 cups is simplified as 5 1/2 cups. In order to find out how many 1/8 cups Jenn will need to scoop, all you have to do is divide each number by 1/8. When you divide fractions, you keep the first fraction the same, change division into multiplication, and flip the second fraction over into it's reciprocal. So 2 / 1/8 becomes 2/1 * 8/1. With that being said, if you solve each of them correctly, here are your answers for the number of 1/8 cups needed.

Water: 16
Brown Rice: 44

Jenn willl have to use the 1/8 scoop to get water 16 times and the 1/8 scoop to get brown rice 44 times.

What is the distributive property of 56 divided by 4
Juli2301 [7.4K]

we know that

The distributive property for division basically means you can split your quantity up into smaller chunks that are easier to divide

so

let’s split 56 into 40 and 16

\frac{56}{4} =\frac{(40+16)}{4} \\ \\ =\frac{40}{4} +\frac{16}{4} \\ \\ =10+4\\ \\ =14

This circle is centered at the origin, and the length of its radius is 6. What is
sergejj [24]

Answer:

A. x^2 + y^2 = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle is usually written in the form

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

Where (h,k) is the center and r is the radius

The center is at the origin so (h,k) = (0,0) and  the radius is 6 so r=6

x^2 + y^2 = 6^2

or x^2 +y^2 = 36
