Answer: 1.6 Ounces.
16/2 is 8.
8/5 is 1.6
You can check this by multiplying 1.6 times 5 then by 2,
An equation for the sentence would be g + 7 = 12, where g is the unknown number of gallons.
Answer:
The base is 19.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given question is, "The perimeter of a rectangle is 58 and its base exceeds its width by 10, how long is the base?"
Perimeter = 58
Base, l = 10+b
The perimeter of a rectangle is :
P = 2(l+b)
58 = 2(10+b+b)
29 = (10+2b)
29-10 = 2b
19 = 2b
b = 9.5
Base, l = 10 + 9.5
= 19.5
Hence, the base is 19.5.
300 is the original amount and 0.5 is the rate (a percent) which is deacying because it is less than 1
