To get the answer, you would do 5.90 divided by 16 because there is 16 ounces in a pound. so for each ounce, you would be paying $.37

(without rounding, the actual answer would be .36875)<span />

There are 16 ounces in a pound, so since they are 5.9 dollars per pound, you would divide 5.9 by 16.
After doing this you get 0.36875. 
Rounding to the cent you get $0.37 per ounce.

i hope this helps (;

Find the product. Your answer must be in simplest form.<br> 7/8 of 56
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

You probably know that the number above the fraction line is called the numerator and the number below it is called the denominator. To work out the fraction of any number, we first need to convert that whole number into a fraction as well.

Here's a little tip for you. Any number can be converted to fraction if you use 1 as the denominator:

56

1

So now that we've converted 56 into a fraction, to work out the answer, we put the fraction 7/8 side by side with our new fraction, 56/1 so that we can multiply those two fractions.

That's right, all you need to do is convert the whole number to a fraction and then multiply the numerators and denominators. Let's take a look:

7 x 56

8 x 1

=  

392

8

In this case, our new fraction can actually be simplified down further. To do that, we need to find the greatest common factor of both numbers.

You can use our handy GCF calculator to work this out yourself if you want to. We already did that, and the GCF of 392 and 8 is 8.

We can now divide both the new numerator and the denominator by 8 to simplify this fraction down to its lowest terms.

392/8 = 49

8/8 = 1

When we put that together, we can see that our complete answer is:

49

1

The complete and simplified answer to the question what is 7/8 of 56 is:

49

Hopefully this tutorial has helped you to understand how to find the fraction of any whole number. You can now go give it a go with more numbers to practice your newfound fraction skills.

Mike can pick 50 strawberries 5 minutes. How many can Mike pick in one minute?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

10 strawberries

Step-by-step explanation:

If Mike can pick 50 strawberries in 5 minutes then it is safe to assume that for 1 minute, Mike can pick 10 strawberries since you divide 50 by 5 in which Mike can pick a strawberry for every 6 seconds.
