Mariah has a spinner that has 10 equal sections, each containing a different number from 1 to 10. Mariah determines about how ma

ny times the spinner will land on a number that is greater than 7 in 250 spins, and her work is shown below.
P (number greater than 7) = StartFraction Number greater than 7 over Total number of sections EndFraction times number of spins = StartFraction 4 over 10 EndFraction (250) = 100.

What mistake did Mariah make, if any?
Mariah has the formula reversed; it should be the total number of sections over the numbers greater than 7.
Mariah should have used a 3 in the numerator because there are 3 numbers greater than 7.
Mariah should multiply by the number of sections in the spinner rather than the total number of spins.
Mariah calculated the prediction correctly and did not make any mistakes.
ASAP plz

There are 10 total numbers.

10 - 7 = 3, so there are 3 numbers greater than 7.

Mariah should have used a 3 in the numerator because there are 3 numbers greater than 7.

Two bags of cement and three bags of sand weigh 68 lbs. Three bags of sand weigh 60 lbs. All bags of cement weigh the same and a
madam [21]

Answer: 4:20

Step-by-step explanation:

60 lbs can be divided into three groups, in this case the bags of sand, so 60 divided by 3 is 20.

Now you have the 8 lbs left. It gets divided into two groups/bags so you would do 8 divided by 2 is 4.

Then for your ratio it is cement to sand which is 4:20. You can write the ratio however way you want or what is required by the question.(fraction bar, ‘to’, or colon ‘:’ )

Hope this helps!

PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ HELP ME!!!<br><br> 1 1/8 to decimal show your work!!!
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

1.125

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First you have to turn it into an improper fraction

8*1 = 8. Add the numerator--> 8+1 = 9.

2) The improper fraction is 9/8

3) Divide 9 by 8

 **Write this using long division

8 goes into 9 one time, so we will write one as our first digit

Carry down the 1 and the 0, 8 goes into 10 1 times so write 1.

And this point we have 1.1 above

Carry down the 2 and the 0, 8 goes into 20 2 times so write 2

At this point we have 1.12

Carry down the 4 and the 0, 8 goes into 40 5 times with no remainders so write 5 and end the division process.

Now we have 1.125 as our decimal for 9/8 which is equivalent to 1 1/8.

1/8 of the boys at a high school tried out for the football team, 1/6 tried out for the baseball team, and 1/ 12 tried out for t
Xelga [282]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is an overlap problem. First we have that 1/8 total tried out for football team, 1/6 total tried out for baseball team and 1/12 of the students that tried out for both football and baseball team.

So if we want to find those who just tried football, we perform the following operation:

1/8 - 1/12 = 1/24.

So we know that 1/24 tried out just football.

If we want to find all those who tried out just for baseball, we perform the following operation:

1/6 - 1/12 = 1/12

So we know that 2/24 (1/12 multiplied by two) tried  for both football and baseball and 3/24 tried out for football, it means that 2/3 of the boys who tried football also tried baseball.
