The recipe calls for 5/8 cups butter and Angie wants to triple the recipe.
Therefore, if Angie is tripling the recipe, she is multiplying all of the ingredients in the recipe by 3.
So for the butter, this would be:
5/8 * 3 = 15/8
Next, we should turn this improper fraction into a mixed number so that we can compare it to the amount of butter that Angie has.
15/8 = 1 7/8
1 7/8 > 1 1/4
Thus, Angie DOES NOT have enough butter to triple the recipe.
Answer:
35
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
GH = 23
HR = 12
Required:
Length big QR
SOLUTION:
Since H is a point in between points Q and R, points Q, H, R are collinear.
QH = 23
HR = 12
QH + HR = QR (segment addition postulate)
23 + 12 = QR (substitution)
35 = QR
Therefore, the length of QR is 35
Firstly, we can convert all of the fractions into percentages. To do this, we need to make the denominator of the fraction 100, and whatever we do to the denominator we must also do to the numerator.
5 x 20 = 100
1 x 20 = 20.
So Carl recieves 20/100 or 20% of the votes.
4 x 25 = 100
1 x 15 = 25
So Conroy receives 25/100 or 25% of the votes.
If we add these together and Gilda's 5%, we get 50%. Since there are 100% votes overall, we need to do 100 - 50 = 50.
Kyla receives 50% of the votes.
Answer:
24 cubes
Step-by-step explanation:
You can figure this a couple of ways.
I usually find it easiest to figure in terms of the number of cubes each dimension represents. The vertical dimension (3/2 cm) is the length of 3 cubes; the front-back dimension (2 cm) is the length of 4 cubes, and the width (1 cm) is the length of 2 cubes.
The total number of cubes required is the product of the dimensions in cube-lengths: 3×4×2 = 24 cubes.

Another way to figure this is to compute the prism volume in the given dimensions (cm³) and the cube volume in the same dimensions, then find the number of cube volumes in the prism volume.
Prism volume = l×w×h = (2 cm)(1 cm)(3/2 cm) = 3 cm³
Cube volume = (1/2 cm)³ = 1/8 cm³
Then the number of cubes that will fit in the prism is ...
(3 cm³)/(1/8 cm³) = 3×8 = 24 . . . . cubes
