8 0

If Gary has seven suits, he can choose which of the seven he will place first. He can choose from the remaining six which one he will place next. This goes on until all the suits are placed in his wardrobe. In short, he can arrange his suits in 7! (7 factorial) ways in his wardrobe.

7! = 5040

Thus, Gary can arrange his suits in 5040 ways.

7!
This means:
7*6*5*4*3*2*1= 5040

Explain how you know that the equations 1/4=2x and 1/4/x=2have the same solution

il63 [147K]

the equations 1/4=2x and 1/4/x=2have the same solution

because 1 / 4/ x = 2 can be simplified to

1 / 4 = 2x which is the same with the first equation

Solve for x = 1/8

Then substitute it to the both equation

¼ = 2 ( ¼)

¼ = ¼

2nd equation

1/ 4 /( 1/8) = 2

2 =2

During a day a student spends 7 hours sleeping ¼ of the day studying and 1/12 of the time travelling what fraction of the day is

Law Incorporation [45]

There is 24 hours in a day.

Spending 7 hours sleeping means you have 7 hours less for other things.
24 - 7 = 17

1/4 of the day is basically saying 1/4 of 24 hours, which is 6 hours.
17 - 6 = 11

1/12 of the day is basically saying 1/12 of 24 hours, which is 2 hours.
11 - 2 = 9

You have 9 hours of the day left, in fraction form being:

3/8 of the day left
