Add up the fractional amounts and divide them by however many amounts there are..........

eg.

Step 1:Add the fractions
1/6 + 5/8 +3/4
(find the LCD)
1/6 + 5/8 + 3/4 = 4/24 + 15/24 + 18/24 = 37/24

Step 2: Divide the sum by the number of numbers in the set
37/24 ÷ 3= 37/24 ÷ 3/1= 37/24 X 1/3= 37/72

<span>So the mean (average) is 37/72</span>

Answer:

multiply by 3 and divide by 2 to get 6x -y = 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

A standard form equation has mutually prime integers for coefficients, and the leading one is positive. We can get that here by multiplying by 3 (to eliminate the denominator) and dividing by 2 (to remove that common factor). The result is ...

4(3/2)x -(2/3)(3/2)y = 8(3/2)

6x -y = 12

6. A factory has two types of machines.

Pie

210 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to figure out how many pieces a single machine can cut in a minute, so you need to divide 105 by 3, which gets you 35 pieces per minute.

Next, since we know there are 6 machines, and one machine canncut 35 pieces per minute, we can the figure out how many pieces all 6 cutting machines can cut in 1 minute. You would do this by making an equation such as this:

$35 \times 6 = x$

The x represents the total number of pieces cut by all 6 machines in one minute.

Next, since we now have an equation, we can go ahead and solve it. We would multiply 35 by 6, which would get us 210 pieces per minute that can be cut by all six machines
