Jamie has 8/10 of a candy bar, and wants to split it into an unknown number of 1/3 pieces. Our objective is to find the number of pieces.

Let the number of pieces be x.

To know the portion of the candy bar each piece is, we divide the total portion of the candy bar by the number of pieces.

So (8/10)/x = 1/3

Multiply each side by x

8/10 = 1/3x

Divide each side by 1/3 so we can have the variable x on a side, and its value on another.

(8/10)/(1/3) = (1/3x)/(1/3)

(8/10) / (1/3) = x

Dividing 2 fractions is equal to multiplying the first fraction by the inverse of the second:

(8/10) / (1/3) = x

(8/10) * 3 = x

24/10 = x

x = 2.4


Since this not a whole number, Jamie can make 2 full 1/3 pieces, and a piece of 1/10.

Or, you can easily say that Jamie can make 2.4 pieces of 1/3.

Find the locus of the point (x,y) which is a distance 3 from the point (-2, 1)
Reptile [31]
Consider this option:
1. rule: Circle is the locus of the points which are on the same distance from the given point. Common view of the equation is: (x-a)²+(y-b)²=r², where r - the distance from the given point to the described locus, a&b - coordinates of the given point.
2. using item 1:
(x+2)²+(y-1)²=3² or (x+2)²+(y-1)²=9.
