Answer:
7/12
Step-by-step explanation:
7/6 - (1/4 + 1/3) =
7/6 - 1/4 - 1/3 = 14/12 - 3/12 - 4/12 = 7/12
Answer:
35 mi²
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's subdivide the figure, as shown.
The lower part is a rectangle whose area is (5 mi)(18 mi) = 90 mi².
The upper part is a trapezoid whose area is found by averaging the length and multiplying the result by the width (8 mi - 5 mi), or 3 mi.
Area of trapezoid:
12 mi + 18 mi
------------------------ = 15 mi Width of trapezoid = 3 mi
2
Thus, the area of the trapezoid is (3 mi)(15 mi) = 45 mi²
and the total area of the entire figure is
45 mi² + 90 mi² = 135 mi²
The proportion
peanuts : raisins : chocolate chips = 4 : 6 : 2
tells you that peanuts make up
4/(4+6+2) = 1/3
of the total quantity of the mix.
The quantity of peanuts required is (1/3)*(48 ounces) = 16 ounces (or 1 pound).
_____
In the 48 ounces of mix, 1 part = 4 ounces.
Given:
grapes = 2 1/2 pounds
apples = 1 1/4 times as many pounds as grapes.
For easier computation, let us convert these fractions into numbers with decimal places.
2 1/2 pounds = 2.50 pounds
1 1/4 times = 1.25
Apples = 2.50 pounds * 1.25 = 3.125 pounds of apples.
Or we still use fractions. We need to convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions.
2 1/2 = 5/2
1 1/4 = 5/4
5/2 * 5/4 = 5*5 / 2*4 = 25/8 is simplified to 3 1/8 pounds
