a. She used 1/10 of the spinach for a salad.b. She used 1/2 pound of spinach for the salad.
We can solve each part of this problem by using a "fraction strip". The strip helps show a breakdown of what portion of spinach was used for each the party, family, and salad. See the attached image for a step by step example of how to multiply the fractions to find the correct portions.
Answer:
r = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
r -8 = 10
r -8 + 8 = 10 + 8
r = 18
$0.56. 0.7/5=$0.14 $0.14 is the amount per minute. so then you would multiply $0.14 x 4= $ 0.56
Subtract 5 from both sides
a/-8 = 4/7 - 5
simplify 4/7 - 5 to 31/-7
a/-8 = 31/-7
multiply both sides by 8
-a = 31/-7 x 8
simplify 31/7 x 8 to 248/7
-a = 248/7
multiply both sides by -1.
The answer is a = 248/7

Height/width=5/19
5/19=2/x
(5)(x)=(19)(2)
5x=38
5/5x=38/5
x=38/5in or 7.6in
