The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:
15 bicycles and 6 skateboards.
Explanation:
Let x represent the number of bicycles and y represent the number of skateboards. The first equation in our system is then
x+y = 21, since there are 21 total items in the shop.
Each bicycle has 2 tires and each skateboard has 4; this gives us the equation
2x+4y=54 (because they are ordering 54 tires).
This makes our system

We will use elimination to solve this; we first need one of the variables to have the same coefficient in both equations. We will make x the same, and we will do this by multiplying the first equation by 2:

Now we will subtract the second equation from the first one:

Divide both sides by -2:
-2y/-2 = -12/-2
y = 6
There were 6 skateboards. Substituting this into the first equation,
x+6 = 21
Subtract 6 from each side:
x+6-6 = 21-6
x = 15
There were 15 bicycles.

Answer:
Depends on what number(s)/fraction(s) your working with.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the reciprocal of a fraction by flipping it. The definition of "reciprocal" is simple. To find the reciprocal of any number, just calculate "1 ÷ (that number)." For a fraction, the reciprocal is just a different fraction, with the numbers "flipped" upside down (inverted).
Answer:
1.) The product of 12 and 3/4 is less than 12. This is because you are multiplying 12 by a number less than 1.
2.) The product of 5 and 1/2 is less than 5, this is because you are multiplying 5 by a number less than one.
Step-by-step explanation:
If multiplied by a number less than one then it will be smaller than original
If multiplied by one will be the same as original
If multiplied by a number greater than one it will be greater than original
