Answer: 6 pieces
=======================================================
Explanation:
3/4 = 6/8 after multiplying both parts by 2
We have a ribbon that is 6/8 of an inch long. We want to cut it into 1/8 inch pieces. We can see there will be exactly 6 pieces
Note how 6*(1/8) = 6/8
Or we can think of it as "we have a ribbon that is 6 units long and we want to cut it into pieces that are 1 unit each, so we'll have 6 pieces total". Replace "unit" with "1/8 inch" and you'll have the same idea.
So, let's look at the problem once again.
8%, or 8/100 of the bag were green jelly beans.
Let's see what we can do to find out a number of other jelly beans, not including the green ones.
We know that 92% of jelly-beans are not green.
92% is 11.5 times more than 8%
(92/8)
24 (or 8%) times 11.5 = 276
276 - number of jelly beans that are not green.
276 plus 24 = 300.
Answer: 300 jelly beans were in one bag.
Answer: 16.75 milliliters
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe it is 16.75 because 0.35 + 16.4 is 16.75 why is it addition decimals? Because it says How many milliliters does the mixture contain. It is talking about both combined.
