Answer:

We can describe FOIL using the distributive property of multiplication. For real numbers x, y, and z the distributive property of multiplication states that

(x + y)z = xz + yz

Now let z = v + w, where v and w are real numbers.

Then (x + y)(v + w) = x(v + w) + y(v + w)

Here, we can again use the distributive property of multiplication to get

x(v + w) + y(v + w) = xv + xw + yv + yw

Hence, it follows that

(x + y)(v + w) = xv + xw + yv + yw

This is the method of FOIL (first: xv, outside: xw, inside: yv, last: yw)

For example, (1 + 2)(3 + 4) = 21 \\\text{and} \\1(3) + 1(4) + 2(3) + 2(4) = 3 + 4 + 6 + 8 = 21

Complete the steps 4/9 divided by 1/2
DedPeter [7]

Answer: 0.88 (the 8 recurs)

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{4}{9}÷\frac{1}{2}

\frac{4}{9}×\frac{2}{1}  (Then the the fraction should reciprocal so the values should shift to          the opposite side were 2 goes up and 1 goes down and the sign turns to the multiplication sign)

then u should multiply the two fractions which gives 8/9

next you should divide 8 by 9 which gives 0.88(the number eight is recurring which means that the number 8 keeps repeating no matter how many times you try to divide)

Three friends share a pizza.one eighth falls on the fall and is thrown away.the remainder is shared equally..what fraction of th
maria [59]
If one eighth of the pizza falls, that leaves seven eights of the pizza to be shared:

1\ (whole\ pizza) -\frac{1}{8}=\frac{7}{8}

If the 7/8 pizza is shared between three people, then you have to divide 7/8 by 3. We know that dividing a fraction by 3 is the same as multiplying by 1/3:

\frac{7}{8} \div 3\\\\\frac{7}{8}*\frac{1}{3}\\\\\frac{7*1}{8*3}\\\\frac{7}{24}

Therefore, each person gets 7/24 of the whole pizza.
