Answer:

x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Pieces of gum given by Sophia = x

Pieces of gum left with Sophia after giving x pieces = 25 - x

Pieces of gum given by Maria = 2 × Gums given by Sophia = 2x

Pieces of gum left with Maria after giving 2x pieces = 75 - 2x

Pieces of gum left with Sophia = Pieces of gum left with Maria

25 - x = 75 - 2x

2x - x = 75 - 25

x = 50

Pieces of gum left with Sophia is 50.

Convert the following repeating decimal to a fraction in simplest form .31 with the 1 repeating
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

14/45

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the fraction:

0.3\bar1=0.31111...

We can do this algebraically. Follow to following steps:

Let's let this number equal to n. Thus:

0.31111...=n

Since there is only 1 digit repeating, let's multiply everything by 10. So:

3.1111...=10n

Now, subtract n from both sides:

3.1111-n=10n-n

On the left, substitute the number for n. On the right, combine like terms:

3.1111...-0.31111...=9n

All of the 1s will cancel. So:

3.1-0.3=9n

Subtract:

2.8=9n

Divide both sides by 9:

n=2.8/9

Remove the decimal by multiplying both sides by 10:

n=28/90

Reduce:

n=14/45

And we're done!

Use a calculator to check:

14/45\stackrel{\checkmark}{=}0.31111...
