Answer:

16 ribbons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the length of the chain as 10\frac{2}{3} and there is a ribbon tied to it every \frac{2}{3}, we can take the total length of the chain and divide by the measure of \frac{2}{3}:

10\frac{2}{3}=\frac{32}{3}

\frac{\frac{32}{3}}{\frac{2}{3}}=\frac{32}{3}*\frac{3}{2}=\frac{96}{6}=16

When dividing with fractions, we use the rule of 'keep/change/flip' to keep the first fractions, change the operation to multiplication and flip the second fraction.

24 POINTSSS for anyone who answers The of a square garden is 36x^2 -60+25 find the perimeter if x=3
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The perimeter is 52

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is 36x^2 -60x+25

We set this equal to 0 to find the length and width

A= 36x^2 -60x+25

We notice that this is a perfect square trinomial

(a^2 -2ab-b^2) = (a-b)^2

let a = 6x  and b=5

A=(6x-5) (6x-5)

The length and width are the same since is it a square  (we know it is a square so they have to be equal)

The perimeter of a square is

P =4s

P =4 (6x-5)

Distribute the 4

  = 24x -20

Let x =3

P = 24(3) -20

  =72 -20

 = 52

The perimeter is 52

How can you find 75% of any number?
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply it by 0.75, or find 3/4 of that number. Whichever you prefer! The first one always works though the second one sometimes does but sometimes 3/4 of the number isn't that obvious.

What is the probability of rolling a number less than 4 on a number cube labeled 1 through 6?
Leya [2.2K]
No matter the number of times you rolled the dice, the probability of getting a number is always 1/6. But here we can choose 4 numbers ( 1 to 4) hence the probability P( 1 or 2 or 3 or 4) = 4/6 2/3  = 0.6667 = 66.67% (A)
