Answer:

Each person will be getting 2\frac{2}{5} pieces  of licorice

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have 12 pieces of licorice

To divide it equally among 5 people following formula will be used

Pieces to be given to each person = \frac{total\, pieces}{total\,people}

                                                           = =\frac{12}{5} \\2.4\\

So

Each person will be getting 2\frac{2}{5} pieces  of licorice

0.5(repeated)+0.1(repeated)-0.3(repeated)?
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

  \dfrac{1}{3}=0.\overline{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a single digit is repeated in each case, and since the repeat starts at the decimal point, the fraction corresponding to the repeated digit is that digit divided by 9.

  0.\overline{5}+0.\overline{1}-0.\overline{3}=\dfrac{5}{9}+\dfrac{1}{9}-\dfrac{3}{9}=\dfrac{5+1-3}{9}=\dfrac{3}{9}\\\\=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{3}}

also this is my 69th answer in math and I find that fact mildly interesting
