Answer:
Green and Blue ribbon
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
They collect
Red Ribbon = ½ mile
Green Ribbon = ⅛ mile
Blue Ribbon = ¼ mile
To find?
Which colors of ribbons will be collected at the ¾ mile mark.
The interpretation of the question is to test which of the above fractions can divide ¾ without a remainder; in other words, multiples of ¾.
Testing each fraction.
Red Ribbon = ½
¾ ÷ ½
= ¾ * 2
= 3/2
= 1.5 or 1 Remainder 1
This is not an exact multiple of ¾. So, the red ribbon won't be passed here.
Green Ribbon = ⅛
¾ ÷ ⅛
= ¾ * 8
= 24/8
= 3
This is an exact multiple of ¾. So, the green ribbon will be collected.
Testing the last ribbon
Blue = ¼
¾ ÷ ¼
= ¾ * 4
= 3
This is an exact multiple of ¾. So, the blue ribbon will be collected.
Hence, the green and blue ribbons will be collected at ¾ mile mark
Answer:
20 cats
Step-by-step explanation:
A proportion has to be setup to answer this
5/4 = 25/x
x represents the missing number of cats
This fraction represents the relationship amongst dogs and cats
----
To solve cross multiply
5x = 100
(let me down below if you need an explanation on how to cross multiply)
Divide both sides by 5 in order to get the variable by itself
100/5 = 20
x = 20
The shelter has 20 cats
Turn everything into decimal form, then divide by 2.
To turn into decimal divide the numerator by the denominator, and leave the whole number as it is.
For slide 1
45.4/2=22.6
For side 2
Gusset plate is 1....
take 5.75 and divide it by 2 =2.875
Take 3.333/2 = 1.6665
Corner of side is 1 and 1 inch thick
for side 3
37.4 divided by 2 = 18.7
Answer: x=3
Step-by-step explanation: Subtract 2 from both sides and subtract 5x from both sides. Then you'll end up with 6 = 2x. Then divide through by 2 on both sides and you're left with x=3.
