Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer, determine the amount of paint that is needed in order to cover the whole of the sign. If we use the ratio and proportion and letting x be the unknown amount. The equation would be,
1/2 / 1/3 = x / 1
The value of x from the equation is equal to 1.5. Thus, the answer is letter D. 3/2 cups.
Usually I would use my head, but you can use whatever you want.
1) Convert the mixed number 8 and 2/13 into a fraction:
8 and 2/13 = 8 + 2/13 = (8*13 + 2) / 13 = 106 / 13
2) Calculate 4/5 of 106 / 13
(4 / 5) * ( 106 / 13) = (4*106) / (5*13) = 424 / 65
That is (390 + 34) / 65 = 390/65 + 34/65 = 6 + 34/65 is painted white
3) Calculate the rest
(1/5) * (106 / 13) = 106 / 65 = 1 + 41/65 is painted blue
Answer:
211
Step-by-step explanation:
As the statement indicates that on each of the 22 work days of the month the employees of the company received a communication and 4642 communications were sent, to be able to determine the number of employees that the company have, you have to divide the number of communications by the number of days:
4642/22= 211
The company has 211 employees.
