Suriland cannot both export wheat and keep bread plentiful and affordable in Suriland. Accordingly, Suriland's wheat farmers are

required to sell their crop to the government, which pays them a dollar per bushel less than the price on the world market. Therefore, if the farmers could sell their wheat on the world market, they would make a dollar per bushel more, less any additional transportation and brokerage costs they would have to pay.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

(A) Suriland's wheat farmers have higher production costs than do farmers in many other wheat-producing countries.
(B) Sale of a substantial proportion of Suriland's wheat crop on the world market would probably depress the price of wheat.
(C) The transportation and brokerage costs that Suriland's farmers would face if they sold their wheat outside Suriland could amount to almost a dollar per bushel.
(D) Suriland is surrounded by countries that do not import any wheat.
(E) The price of a bushel of wheat on the world market occasionally drops below the average cost of producing a bushel of wheat in Suriland.

Answer:

the most accurate argument is (C) The transportation and brokerage costs that Suriland's farmers would face if they sold their wheat outside Suriland could amount to almost a dollar per bushel.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of transportation and other logistics is being covered by the government that is why the government pay less than dollar per bushel.

so the price of the wheat would have to decrease at home so that the cost of the transportation can be covered by the government who are buying directly from the farmers.

Steve said it does not matter which term is first and which term is second in a ratio, since ratios are different than fractions
marishachu [46]

Ratio is a comparison of two values or two quantities.

Fraction is a another form of ratio.

The first term and the second term in the ratios are important.

It should not be changed.

The first quantity value is in first term and the second quantity value is in second term of the ratio.

Ratio and fractions are same.

Example:

The ratio of male to female in the school is 5 : 6.

5 represents male students and 6 represents female students.

The fraction form of the above ratio is \frac{5}{6} .

14/1 ÷ 3/8 = please show work and answer fast​
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: 37 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

14/1÷3/8=?

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal (inverse) of the second fraction.

Take the reciprocal of the second fraction by flipping the numerator and denominator and changing the operation to multiplication. Then the equation becomes

14/1 × 8/3=?

For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get

14×8/1×3 = 112/3

This fraction cannot be reduced.

The fraction

112/3

is the same as

112÷3

Convert to a mixed number using

long division so

112/3=37 1/3

Therefore:

14/1 ÷ 3/8=37 1/3
