Answer:
1 2/3 = 1 8/12
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 * 4/4 because 3*4= 12 is 8/12 hope this helps :)
You can solve this by putting the number of copies in the top part of the fraction. If you replace the one in the top part of 1/6 with 3, you get the fraction 3/6. Half of six is three and half of two is one, so both fractions are equal. You can test this be dividing the 3 in the top by 3 and the 6 in the bottom by three. Your result will be 1/2. Although there are three times ad many copies, each copy is three times as small, so it balances out.
Answer:
1. 7
2. 15
3. 181
Step-by-step explanation:
Just make sure that you make your denominator a whole number
1. 9.8/1.4....,you multiply by 10...which only removes the comma but it keeps the structure of the question
Always remember that what you do to the denominator...you also do to the numerator
: 9.8/1.4 × 10/10 = 98/14 = 7
2. 40.5/2.7....,you multiply by 10
: 40.5/2.7 × 10/10 = 405/27 = 15
3. 3.62/0.02...., you multiply by 100
: 3.62/0.02 × 100/100 = 362/2 = 181
We can think of this as an equality
5 Lawns = 8 Hours
If she needs 40 hours, you can multiply 8 hours by 5 to get 40, but now it's not balanced. So, you need to multiply 5 to the other side too so:
5 x (5) = 8 x (5)
Therefore she mows 25 Lawns in 40 Hours
a. (2175 mi)/(18 mi/day) = 120.83... day ≈ 121 days
b. 120.83.../4 = 30.2083...
Joelle will hike 30 full days and one partial day.
