Now box is 3/4 full


3/4 = 3/4*1


3/4 = 3/4 * 3/3 = 9/12


Box is 9/12 full after heba ate 1/12 of a box of cereal


Initial fraction will be 9/12+1/12


=10/12= 5/6

Answer:

5/6.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Heba ate 1/12 of a box of cereal and the box is now 3/4 full, then before she ate the box is 3/4 plus the 1/12 (because, in the "before" situation she hasn't eaten yet). So, we need to add the "now" quantity and the quantity eaten:

\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{12} = \frac{10}{12} = \frac{5}{6}.

Then, before she ate the cereal, the box is 5/6 full.

Lea has 3/4 cup of laundry detergent left in detergent bottle. Each load of laundry requires 1/6 cup of detergent. How many load
Stells [14]
ANSWER

Lea can wash 4½ loads of laundry with the remaining detergent.

EXPLANATION

Quantity of detergent left
= \frac{3}{4}

Quantity required to watch each load
= \frac{1}{6}

Number of loads Lea can wash
= \frac{3}{4} \div \frac{1}{6}

We now simplify this by multiplying with the reciprocal

Number of loads Lea can wash

= \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{6}{1}

= \frac{3}{2} \times \frac{3}{1}

= \frac{9}{2}

= 4 \frac{1}{2}

Therefore Lea can wash 4½ loads of laundry with the remaining detergent.

Daniel [21]

Answer: If a litre of fuel at the coast (95 octane) costs R13,89, then 38% is tax. The difference between inland and coastal fuel prices is mainly due to transport costs of the fuel from depots at the coat to inland outlets.
