Hello,
If there is a methode for dividing mixed numbers, i would like to see it
For me, european, 3&1/4=13/4
2&2/3=8/3
(13/4)/(8/3)=13/4*3/8=39/32=1&7/32
Answer:
L=21.6in and w=13.6
Step-by-step explanation:
If the length is 8 inches longer than its width, we can write the width as "w" and the length as the width w+ 8
Area is (width)(Length) = (width)(width+8)
W
----------
| |
| |
| | L = w+8

-----------
A = (w+8)(w)
A = w2 + 8w = 295.
(Problem states that area is 295 sq in)
Need to solve this quadratic equation
w2 +8y - 295 = 0
Factor:
(w - 13.64) (w + 21.64) = 0
So
w - 13.64 = 0. or. w + 21.64= 0
Solve these and get
w = 13.64. or. w = -21.64
Only one that makes sense in real life is the poitive one.
So the dimensions are
Width = 13.64 inches
Length = 21.64 inches
Answer:
division equation
x/6 = 12
The size he should buy = 72 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
Mr Ortega bought a ham. He wants to divide it into 6 ounce serving for 12 people . The division equation to find what size of ham Mr Ortega should buy is represented below.
Mr Ortega wants to share for each person 6 ounce serving for 12 people.
Let the amount of ounce he will buy = x ounces
Therefore, the division equation to find what size of hams Mr Ortega should buy will be
x/6 = 12
To find x we cross multiply
x = 12 × 6
x = 72 ounces
