Answer:

Amanda bought 24 pounds of turkey for the eve of Christmas. She decided to cook one third of the turkey for the guests coming over lunch. So she will cook one third of 24 pounds that is 8 pounds of turkey for the lunch.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a multiplication problem $24(\frac{1}{3} )=8$ .

Basically it says one third of 24 is 8.

So a real life representation of the following multiplication problem can be represented as follows:

The unit rate you're trying to find is pages per day(or p/d), so the equation needs to have both a unit for pages and for days.
The equation we have is:
$5,249 = 29d$
If they read 5,249 pages, then we can include the unit for pages in the equation.
Since we also know that d is the number of days it took, you can replace d with days.
The equation becomes:
$5,249\ pages=29*(x\days)$
Now that we have one variable, we can solve for p/d:
$\frac{5,249\ pages}{29}=x\ days\\\\181 = x$
Thus it took them 181 days to read it all.

If Johnny read 5,249 pages over 181 days and the unit rate is pages per day(p/d), then the equation for finding p/d is:
$\frac{p\ pages}{d\ days}=\frac{5,249\ pages}{181\ days}=\frac{29\ pages}{1\ day}\\\\29\ \frac{pages}{day}$
Johnny read 29 pages per day.

Answer:

Range is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Range can be calculated by subtracting the smallest value of the data set from the largest value of the data set.

The values are:

13, 17, 18, 15, 12, 21, 10, 6, 8, 11, 3

Largest Value in this data set: 21

Smallest Value in this data set: 3

Range = Largest Value - Smallest Value

Range = 21 - 3

Range = 18

A string is cut into two pieces in the ratio 2 : 7. The difference between the lengths of the two pieces is 90cm. Find the lengt

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:the length of the shorter string= 36cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the lengths are 2x and 7x since thery are in the ratio of 2 :7

Such that Length of the shorter string = 2x

and the longer string = 7x so that the difference in Length which is 90cm can be expressed as

7x- 2x= 90

5x= 90

x 90/5

x= 18

shorter string = 2 x = 2x 18= 36cm

Longer strring = 7x 18=126cm
