Hey there!

To solve this problem, first turn the mixed numbers to improper fractions then multiply 2 2/3 and 1 1/4 . . .

2 2/3 = 8/3
1 1/4 = 5/4

8 x 5 = 40

3 x 4 = 12

= 40/12

Simplify 40/12 . . .

40/12 = 3 1/3 <--------

The answer to your question is option B.

The bananas weighed 3 1/3 pounds.

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!

It should cost $1.65 for each large drink.

You subtract $12 to $16.95 and that would give you 4.95 and divide it to the number of drinks they bought which is 3 and that would give you $1.65

Amy, Bruce and Carlos collected a total of 168 pounds of cans to recycle. Bruce collected 1/3 the number of pounds of cans Carlo
disa [49]
A + b + c = 168
b = 1/3c
a = b + c....a = 1/3c + c = 4/3c

now we sub
4/3c + 1/3c + c = 168
8/3c = 168
c = 168 * 3/8
c = 504/8
c = 63 <=== Carlos collected 63 lbs

a = 4/3c
a = 4/3(63)
a = 252/3
a = 84 <== Amy collected 84 lbs

b = 1/3c
b = 1/3(63)
b = 63/3 <== Bruce collected 21 lbs
b = 21

Of all the rectangles with a perimeter of 168 feet, find the dimension of the one with the largest area
dolphi86 [110]
<span>The rectangle with the largest area with a given perimeter will be a square - so the sides will be equal. So we need to find length of side, L, such that 4*L=168. L = 168/4 L=42. So the dimensions of the rectangle that maximizes the area with a perimiter of 168 feet are: 42 feet by 24 feet.</span>
