First, take out the whole number portion, and solve the decimal part, which is 0.85. 0.85 = 85/100. So, the mixed number would be 2 85/100. However, most teachers want you to simplify your mixed numbers, so divide both numbers by a factor that you think is common. 5 is a common factor, so 85/5 = 17. 100/5 = 20. So, the answer is simplified to 2 17/20.
Hope that helped.

Your car gets 32.4 miles/gallons and your tank holds 14.25 gallons of gas.

Sveta_85 [38]

€€a) Your full tank of gas will let you travel
(32.4 mi/gal)*(14.25 gal) = 461.7 mi

b)The cost of that tank of gas is
(14.25 gal)*($2.11/gal) = $30.07

c) The cost in Euros can be figured from
$\dfrac{1\,gal}{32.4\,mi}\cdot \dfrac{\$2.11}{1\,gal}\cdot \dfrac{1.00\,Euros}{\$1.09}\cdot \dfrac{1\,mi}{1.609344\,km}\cdot(1200\,km)\\\\=\dfrac{2.11\cdot1200}{32.4\cdot1.09\cdot1.609344}\,Euros\\\\=44.55\,Euros$

The cost is €44.55 for 1200 km.

the table shows ingredients needed to make 1 batch of fruit salad. Mr. Weakland has enough ingredients to make 2 1/2 batches of

Juli2301 [7.4K]

The number of cups of fruit salad that will be in each container is; 3³/₄ cups of fruit salad

<h3>How to divide fractions?</h3>

We are given the table showing the amount of cups of each ingredient as attached.

From the table we see that;

Amount of cups of Pineapple = 2³/₄

Amount of cups of Strawberries = 2¹/₂

Amount of cups of Bananas = 1¹/₂

Amount of cups of Blueberries = 2¹/₄

Now, converting each of the given fractions to improper fractions gives;

11/4, 5/2, 3/2, 9/2

Summing up all the fractions will give us;

11/4 + 5/2 + 3/2 + 9/2

(1/4)(11 + 10 + 6 + 18) = 45/4

Now, since this total amount will be divided by 3, we will have;

45/4 ÷ 3

= 45/4 * 1/3

= 15/4 = 3³/₄ cups of fruit salad

The event of walking your dog is A and the event of electing a female as class president is B. If these events are independent e

KengaRu [80]

The value of the probability is 0.54

<h3>How to determine the probability?</h3>

The given parameters are:

P(A) = 0.35

P(B) = 0.54

From the question, we understand that the events are independent.

This means that

P(B|A) = P(B)

Substitute P(B) = 0.54

P(B|A) = 0.54

Hence, the value of the probability is 0.54
