There are many ways to solve number 5 as it is just an reduce/enlargement of equidistant fractions

The first method that came up to my mind is just dividing denominators.

For A) you can do 72 divided by 18 which would give you 4. Then you can divide the given numerator with the answer you got from dividing the denominators. This would be 8 divided by 4 which would give you two. This means that 2/18 is equal to 8/72. You can check by simplifying the fraction. Both 2/18 and 8/72 equal 9 when simplified, therefore correct.

You can use this method for b, either use a calculator because of the decimals or just remove the decimals and replace them later. Make sure when you use this method, you are always dividing the bigger number. So in B you would do 40.3 divided by 12.4

NeTakaya

Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

A family is trying to pick from different shades of paint for their living room. They have narrowed it down to 10 colors: 3 different blues and 7 different greens. The family decides to just randomly select a color from these. What is the probability they will pick a shade of blue? Choose the answer in percent form. Question 3 options: 50% 100% 70% 30%

First, we need to convert the probability of picking a blue shade into a fraction.

= 3/10

Since this is by 10, we need to times 0.3 (numerator) by 10 (the number of outcomes) Whatever you do to the numerator, you do to the denominator. This means that you also times 10 by 10

This gives you 30/100

Since a percentage is out of 100, you don't need to change anything, just take away the 100 and put a percentage sign.

=30%

Which do you think will have a greater value, 1/8 of one pound gold or 1/4 of lead? Why?
Ivenika [448]
<span>if you multiply 1/8 by 4, the fraction become 4/32, and if you multiply 1/4 by 8 you get 8/32.Since both fractions have the same denominator, we can find which fraction has the greater value. Since 1/4(8/32) has a greater numerator, the 1 pound of lead will have a larger value.</span>
