Answer: 16
You divide 8 by 1/2 and you get 16 pieces
Answer:
the number is 24
Step-by-step explanation:
10 less than two thirds the number is one fourth the number
Let the unknown number be x
two third of the number is 
10 less than two third the number becomes

one fourth the number becomes 
10 less than two thirds the number is one fourth the number

We need to solve for x
LCD is 3*4 = 12
Multiply the whole equation by 12

8x - 120 = 3x
add 120 on both sides
8x = 3x + 120
Subtract 3x on both sides
5x = 120
divide by 5 on both sides
x= 24
The answer is b this is the
Correct answer
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The first number on the mechanic's list is the one that is most negative. The negative numbers on the list are ...
-3/16, -1/4, -1/16
These are easier to compare if they have a common denominator:
-1/4 = -4/16
So, the numbers are ...
-3/16, -4/16, -1/16
The one that is most negative is -4/16 = -1/4. Only one answer choice has this listed first. (No further work is necessary.)
