Given:
1/2 pound of flour
split the flour into 3 bags of equal weight.

1/2 ÷ 3 

In dividing fractions, you must remember to get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction and multiply it to the 1st fraction.

3 is the 2nd fraction. Its reciprocal is 1/3

1/2 * 1/3 = 1/6 pound of flour.

The False statement is:
C. Each bag has 1/3 pound of flour.

Sanjay borrowed 7,000 at a simple interest rate of 3% per year. After a certain number of years he had paid $840 in interest alt
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

It was 4 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we need to use the appropriate formula for simple interest, which is shown below:

M = C*r*t

Where M is the amount of interest, C is the initial amount of money, r is the rate of interest and t is the time elapsed in years. Applying the data from the problem we have:

840 =7000*0.03*t

840 = 210*t

210*t = 840

t = 840/210

t = 4

It was 4 years.
