When you divide by a fraction all you have to is multiply by the reciprocal. The reciprocal of 3/8 is 8/3.
<span>The real problem is 2/3 TIMES 8/3. Multiply the numerators across 2 X 8 = 16. Then multiply the denominators across 3 X 3 = 9. The answer is 16/9. If you need to simplify then the answer is 1 7/9.</span>
Let t represent Todd's age now.
.. 4(t -3) -(t -3) = 81 . . . . . . 3 years ago, their differnce in ages was 81.
.. 3t -9 = 81
.. t = (81 +9)/3 = 30
Todd is 30 now.

You can also work this by considering "ratio units." 3 years ago, the ratio of their ages was 4:1, a difference of 3. That difference corresponds to 81 years, so each "ratio unit" represents 81/3 = 27 years. Todd's age then was 1 ratio unit, 27 years. Now, Todd's age is 30.
Answer:
she would need 7 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
'16' is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
So, 6=x+2 divided by 3. In this case, we can multiply 6 and 3 which makes
18 = x+2. We substract 2 from 18 and the answer is 16. If you don't understand anything, you can ask by leaving a comment below. Thanks.
16+2 = 18/3 = 6
