When you only want to make a fraction of a recipe, say like 1/2, you multiply that fraction by every measurement of an ingredient.

So, if a recipe calls for 2 cups of flour, you multiply the measurement of that ingredient by the fraction. In our case 1/2.

2 * 1/2 = 2/2 = 1

Now we need to only put 1 cup of flour.

Same difference with the question above. Raheim only wants 3/4 of the recipe. So, we multiply 3/4 by the measurement of every ingredient.

One of the ingredients is butter. In the original recipe, it is 2/3 of a cup.

Now we multiply 2/3 by 3/4.

2/3 * 3/4 = 6/12

Simplify the fraction.

6/12 = 1/2

So, Raheim should use 1/2 of a cup of butter.

If B = {−13, −9, −7, −3}, choose the set A that will make the following statement false.
Svetach [21]

Answer: c.A is the set of rational numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

B ⊆ A means that every element of B is an element of A

B = { -13 , -9 , -7 , - 3 }

The element of B are negative integers , this mean that the element of A must also be integers therefore :

Option a is correct.

Option b is also correct

Rational numbers are numbers that can be express in the form a/b , examples are : 1/2 , 3/ 4 , 5/6 ...

clearly , this does not necessarily define A , so option c is the odd one out

8 out of 200 is what percent
kipiarov [429]
Hey there! 

Here are the steps involved in answering this question:

1. Write 8 out of 200 as a fraction which is \frac{8}{200}

2. Turn the fraction into a decimal. To do this, divide the numerator by the denominator. The numerator is the top part of the fraction while the denominator is the bottom part of the fraction.

\frac{8}{200}  = 0.04

3. You get 0.04. Now, turn this into a percent. Move the decimal, 2 places to the right or just multiply the decimal by 100.

0.04 = 4%

The final answer is 4%.

Another way of doing this is to get 100 as a denominator.
Since, percent means, "Out of 100", we have to make the denominator 100.

1.  \frac{8}{200} = 4/100

Just divide each side by 2.

Again, the final answer is, 4%
