Why does it take 3 copies of 1/6 to show the same amount as 1 copy of 1/2?

You can solve this by putting the number of copies in the top part of the fraction. If you replace the one in the top part of 1/6 with 3, you get the fraction 3/6. Half of six is three and half of two is one, so both fractions are equal. You can test this be dividing the 3 in the top by 3 and the 6 in the bottom by three. Your result will be 1/2. Although there are three times ad many copies, each copy is three times as small, so it balances out.

Before 8 A.M., there were 64 trucks and 24 cars in a parking lot. Between 8 A.M. and 9 A.M., more cars entered the parking lot a
malfutka [58]

Answer:

232 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the number of cars that entered is c.

At 9:00 am, there are a total of 24 + c cars and 64 trucks. We know that this value of 64 represents 1/5 of the total number of vehicles. The total number of vehicles is (24 + c) + 64 = 88 + c. So, we have:

64/(88 + c) = 1/5

Cross-multiply:

88 + c = 64 * 5 = 320

c = 320 - 88 = 232

Thus, the answer is 232 cars.

Note: as 232 doesn't show up in the answer choices, it's possible that the problem was copied correctly.

Find the value of an investment of $5000 at 7% compounded continuously for 6 years
Helga [31]

Answer:

Option 4 is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

If the rate is compounded continuously, the formula used to find the future value is:

A= Pe^rt

Where A = Future Value

P= Principal amount

r = interest rate in decimal

t = time

For the given data:

A=?

P = $5000

r = 7% or 0.07

t = 6

Putting values in the above formula

A= 5000e^(0.07 *6)

A = 7609.81

So, Option 4 is correct.
