48.75 / 750 = 0.065
0.065 * 100% = 6.5%

Check:
750 * 6.5% = 750 * 6.5/100 = 750 * 65/1000 = 48750/1000 = 48.75

What is the answer to 10 - 5 2/3 I suck at fractions
Free_Kalibri [48]
4 1/3 

Okay, I know fractions are scary, but we can do this alright?

First, you see the whole number on the side? Get that first.

10- 5 = 5

now we have 5 left and a scary fraction.  Don't panic, let's do this.  We know 1 is 3/3.  1 can be anything as long as the number on top and the number at the bottom are the same then it would be one.

So 3/3 is one then we can subtract:

3/3 -2/3 .

We subtract the top number and leave the one at the bottom the same.

3-2 = 1

Then we have 1/3.

As you took one away from the 5, it becomes a 4 and you put back the left over, 1/3.

Then you answer will be :

4  1/3

Write your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.<br> 27pts
statuscvo [17]

<u>What we know</u>:

  • Bird feeder capacity:             -->  2 4/5 cups
  • Samantha's scoop capacity: -->  7/10 cups

<em>Lets first convert the mixed partial fraction --> improper fraction</em>

<em>        --> for easier calculation</em>

<em />

<u>After Conversion:</u>

  • Bird feeder capacity:             -->  14/5 cups
  • Samantha's scoop capacity: -->  7/10 cups

<u>To find how many scoops of birdseed will Samantha put into the feeder we must:</u>

  --> divide the total capacity by the scoop's capacity

       --> find the number of scoops:

<u>Solve:</u>

  Total-number- of -scoops = \frac{\frac{14}{5} }{\frac{7}{10} } =\frac{14}{5} *\frac{10}{7} =\frac{14*10}{5*7} =\frac{14}{7} *\frac{10}{5} =2*2=4

Thus the total number of scoops that Samantha will put into the bird feeder is <u>4</u>

<u></u>

<u>Answer: 4</u>

<u></u>

Hope that helps!

11. The length of a rectangle is three times its width. The perimeter of the
Elenna [48]

Answer: The length of the rectangle is 37.5 inches and the width is 12.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation: The dimensions of the rectangle is not given but we have clues given. The length is given as three times it’s width which means if the width is W, then the length would be given as 3W (three times the width). Also the perimeter is given as 100 inches and the formula for the perimeter is;

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

We can now insert the known values as follows;

100 = 2(3W + W)

100 = 2(4W)

100 = 8W

Divide both sides of the equation by 8

12.5 = W

Having calculated the width as 12.5 inches, the length now becomes

L = 3W

L = 3 x 12.5

L = 37.5

Hence the length is 37.5 inches and the width is 12.5 inches
