1 answer:

5 0

The diagram of the three angles is shown below with point U as the point where all three lines meet.

Angles property: Angles around a point add up to 360°

We set up an equation

$175+17x-3+17x+8=360$
$180+34x=360$
$34x=360-180$
$34x=180$
$x= \frac{180}{34}= \frac{90}{17}$

In ¾ pound of a banana bread, there is ½ cup of cinnamon. How much cinnamon does the bread contain per pound?

Shkiper50 [21]

1 pound of bread contains $\frac{2}{3}$ cups of cinnamon.

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that , In $\frac{3}{4}$ pound of a banana bread, there is $\frac{1}{2}$ cup of cinnamon

Amount of cinnamon per pound in bread

Let "n" be the cinnamon per pound present in bread

$\frac{3}{4}$ pound of banana bread ⇒ $\frac{1}{2}$ cup of cinnamon

Then, 1 pound of bread ⇒ n cups of cinnamon

Now, let us use criss cross method (i.e. multiplying the diagonal ordered terms and equating them)

$\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow n \times \frac{3}{4}=\frac{1}{2} \times 1} \\\\ {\rightarrow n \times \frac{3}{4}=\frac{1}{2}} \\\\ {\rightarrow n=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{4}{3}} \\\\ {\rightarrow n=\frac{2}{3}}\end{array}$

Hence, 1 pound of bread contains $\frac{2}{3}$ cups of cinnamon.
