Endeye needs to split 1/5 of the dinner left over from last week to feed her 3 siblings. What fraction of the original dinner wi
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

<u><em>They each had </em></u><u><em>1/20 of the original meal</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>To begin, </em></u><u><em>there are 4 people</em></u><u><em>. Her siblings, and herself. She is </em></u><u><em>splitting the 1/5 leftover</em></u><u><em> to feed them. To do this, we simply </em></u><u><em>take 1/5 and put it into a fraction to get 0.2</em></u><u><em>. Next, we can </em></u><u><em>put 0.2 / 4 into a calculator</em></u><u><em> to get how much each person can get.</em></u>

<u><em>0.2 / 4 = 0.05.</em></u>

<u><em>Now, we need to </em></u><u><em>turn it into a fraction</em></u><u><em> to find out how much they had in fraction form of the original.</em></u>

<u><em>0.05 = 1/20</em></u>

<u><em>They each had </em></u><u><em>1/20 of the original meal</em></u>

A biscuit recipe calls for 2 pounds of all purpose flour and .75 pound of butter, what would be the baker’s percentage for butte
Goryan [66]

Answer: 37.5%


Explanation:


Percentage is defined as parts of an amount  in 100 parts of a basis. This must be stated mathamatically for better understanding and for calculations. It is the ratio:

             % = (parts / base) × 100.


In this case you need to express the amount of butter as a part in 100 parts of all purpose flour, which, using the above definition, is:


        % butter = (0.75 pounds of butter / 2 pound of flour) × 100

         % butter = 0.75 × 100 / 2 = 75 / 2 = 37.5


The answer is expressed as 37.5%.
