Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You subtract 1 1/4 from 7 1/2 and you get the answer
Answer:
Jim's claim is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Total survey=100 people
Morning exercise=35 people
Afternoon exercise=45 people
Night exercise=20 people
Morning exercise : Total survey
=35 : 100
Afternoon exercise : Total survey
=45 : 100
Night exercise : Total survey
=20 : 100
Jim's claim is correct because in finding the ratio, one has to relate it with the total people involved in the survey.
Tara's claim however seems to relate one variable with two other variables
Example:
35 : 55
Morning exercise : (morning exercise + night exercise)
35 : (35+20)
35 : 55
Step-by-step explanation:
always try to bring fractions you need to compare to the same denominator (bottom number).
we have 9/10 of the pizza left.
then 4/5 if the pizza are eaten.
how to compare 9/10 with 4/5 ?
by bringing 4/5 also to a fraction of 10ths.
what do I need to multiply 5 with to get 10 ?
right, 2.
since we don't want to change the overall value of the original fraction, we need to multiply both levels (numerator and denominator) by that same factor :
4/5 × 2/2 = 8/10
aha !
that we can compare with 9/10.
so, when Lucas ate 4/5 (= 8/10) of the pizza, when there was originally 9/10 left, then we have 1/10 of the pizza left.
The area of a square is the square of the length of its side. Here, we're told that the side of each square is equal to the radius (r) of the circle. Then the area of each square is
.. Asquare = r^2
There are 3 of them, so their total area is
.. Aall_squares = 3*r^2
The area of a circle is given by the formula
.. Acircle = π*r^2 . . . . . where r represents the radius of the circle
Fernie wants to compare the area of the 3 squares to that of the circle. We know that the value of π is about 3.1416, a little more than 3, so we have
.. Aall_squares = 3*r^2
.. Acircle ≈ 3.1416*r^2
We notice that 3.1416 is more than 3, so the area of the circle is greater than the area of Fernie's 3 squares.
___
It is not clear to me that Fernie's drawing will explain the formula A = π*r^2, unless it can somehow be used to show that the parts of each square that are outside the circle add up to an amount that is slightly less than the uncovered part of the circle.
