2/3 is the simplified form of 18/27

Naddik [55]4 years ago

Just to explain why the answer is 2/3. You need to find a factor that is in both of these numbers. So factors for 18 would be 2, 3, 6 and 9. Factors for 27 would be 3 and 9. 3 and 9 are in both, so these are what you should focus on. To get the simplest version, you should divide each side by the biggest number in your factor pairs, because that will get you the smallest answer. So 18/9=2 and 27/9=3. This gives 2 and 3 which is 2/3. Hope this helps :)

A company paid $48 for 2 cases of printer paper. Each case contained 12 packages of paper. Next month the company’s office manag

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

$360.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find how much it costs for a single case of printer paper.

48 ÷ 2 = 24

It costs $24 to buy one case of 12 packages.

Now we have to figure out how many cases we will need to buy for the total amount of 180 packages.

I will divide 12 from 180.

180/12 = 15.

You will need to buy 15 cases to get 180 packages.

Now to find the cost, we have to multiply.

x = 15 (amount of cases)

y = $24 (price of case)

z = How much it costs.

$x * y=z$

Substitute:

$15*24=z$

Multiply:

$15 * 24= 360$

$z=360$

If the price does not change, the total cost of next month's order will be $360.

At 5:00 a.M., a parking lot had 16 cars already parked in it. Throughout the course of the day, 48 more cars entered and parked

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The situation is that; the parking lot has 64 cars at the end of the day

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Initial Number of cars = 16

Additional Cars = 48

Required

Determine the situation for the day

From the question, we understand that no car left the park;

This implies that

$Number\ of\ cars = Initial\ Cars + Additional\ Cars$

$Number\ of\ cars = 16 + 48$

$Number\ of\ cars = 64$

So, the situation is that; the parking lot has 64 cars at the end of the day

--------- = ---------

30 s

Using cross products

40*s = 30*8

40s = 240

Divide each side by 40

40s/40 = 240/40

s = 6
