Explain how the number of pieces in a whole relates to the size of each piece

1 answer:

4 0

As the number of pieces in a whole gets larger, the size of the pieces gets smaller. This is represented by the denominator in a fraction. As the denominator increases, the number of pieces the whole is divided into also increases so the size of the pieces is smaller.
1/2 > 1/3 > 1/4 > 1/5 etc...

Fractions get smaller as the denominator gets bigger.

How would I solve I need to know Asap and what is the answer

Elanso [62]

Answer:

A) 5

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = √(distance between x coordinates² + distance between y coordinates²)

the horizontal distance between the two points is 4

the vertical distance between the two points is 3

to prove this, if you started at Q and went 4 points right and then 3 points up, you would get to P

distance = √(4²+3²) = √25 = 5

How many sets of two or more consecutive positive integers can be added to obtain a sum of 1800?

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

n = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

Total sum of consecutive number is 1800

sum of n number is given as

$sum = \frac{ n(n+1)}{2}$

where n is positive number and belong to natural number i.e 1,2,3,4,...

from the data given we have $1800 = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}$

solving for n we get

[/tex]n^2 + n -3600 = 0[/tex]

n = 59.5, -60.5

therefore n = 60
