Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Mass of apples = number of containers × mass in each container
6 lb = No of containers × ½ lb
No of containers = 6/½
To divide a whole number by a fraction, invert the fraction and change divide to multiply.
6/½ = 6 × 2/1
Multiply the numerator by the whole number.
6 × 2/1 = 12/1
Simplify the fraction.
12/1 = 12
Elise can make 12 containers of applesauce.
Answer:
a) The unit rate for calories per cup is 100 calories per cup
b) 200 calories in 2 cups of cereal.
Step-by-step explanation:
A box of cereal states that there are 75 calories in a three fourths 3/4-cup serving.
a) What is the unit rate for calories per cup?
This is calculated as:
3/4 cup = 75 calories
1 cup = x
Cross Multiply
3/4x = 75 calories × 1
x = 75 calories /3/4 cup
x = 75 ÷ 3/4
x = 75 × 4/3
x = 100 calories per cup
The unit rate for calories per cup is 100 calories per cup
b) How many calories are there in 2 cups of the cereal?
From the above question
3/4 cup = 75 calories
2 cups = x
Cross Multiply
3/4x = 75× 2
x = 150 ÷ 3/4
x = 150 × 4/3
x = 200 calories
There are 200 calories in 2 cups of cereal.
Answer:
the correct answers are 22 and 8
Answer=24 blue marbles and 3 red marbles
r=red marbles
b=blue marbles
b=3(r+5)
27=b+r
substitue b for '3(r+5)'
27=3(r+5)+r
27=3r+15+r
27=4r+15
subtract 15 from both sides
12=4r
divide both sides by 4
3=r
There are 3 red marbles
27=b+r
27=b+3
subtract 3 from both sides
24=b
There are 24 blue marbles
To find the decimal value of a fraction, you simply divide the numerator by the denominator. In this case, we are dividing 4 by 20, which is equal to .2. Therefore, the decimal value that is equal to 4/20 is 0.2.
