So basically the question just wants you to add fractions so we set up the problem like this
1/2+1/5+1/8=weight of herbs=x (x signifies an unknown number)

so we have to get the bottom numbers the same before we can add them so we have to find the smallest number that they all can multiply into
so
       2=2
       5=5
       8=2*2*2
       so the smallest number that that will go into all three of the numbers is
     2*2*2*5 =40
so the bottom number will be 40
so 1/2 is equal to 20/40
1/5=8/40
1/8=5/40
so 20/40+8/40+5/40=33/40
answer is 33/40 grams
so

The Volume () of gas vanes inversely to the pressure (P). The volume of gas is 200 cm ^ 3 under pressure of 32 kg/cm^ 2 What wil
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

0.025 Kg/ cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

if two variables vary inversely, there is a negative relationship between both variables. the increase in one variable leads to a decrease in the other variable

the equation that represents inverse proportion :

y = \frac{b}{x}

where b = constant of proportionality

to determine the answer in this question :

1. determine constant of proportionality

200 = k / 32

k = 6400

2. Determine the amount of pressure using the constant of proportionality

256, 000 = 6400 / pressure

pressure = 6400 / 256, 000 = 0.025
