now, let's expand the squared term to get the standard form of the quadratic.
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.
1 ) 116/17 = 7.1875 which is 5.1875 from 2, 17/8 is 2.125 which is 0.125 from 2 and 63/32 is 1.968 which is 0.032 from 2. 63/32 is the closest to 2.
