Shawna, Ryan, and Dominic ate a whole pizza. Shawna ate 1
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

\frac{1}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to add the amount Shawna & Ryan ate together, then subtract it from 1 to find the amount of pizza that was left for Dominic to eat.

\frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{2} = ?

Make all the denominators the same to add fractions.

\frac{1}{3}  is \frac{2}{6}

\frac{1}{2}  is \frac{3}{6}

\frac{2}{6} +  \frac{3}{6} = \frac{5}{6}

1 -  \frac{5}{6} = \frac{1}{6}

If 14 people show up to a cookout and you make 21 hot dogs, how many will you need to make if 105 people up?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = number of  of hot dogs that 105 people  will do

therefore

14 people = 21 hot dogs

105 people = x hot dogs

14 x 105 people = 21 x Xhotdogs

1470 = 21X

divide through by 21

1470/21 = 21X/21

70 = X

X = 70

therefore,

105 people will makev 70 hot dogs
