Division word problems often ask you to split something evenly. You should solve this problem by dividing the total amount of ice cream by the amount you will serve each guest. After converting to fractions, 4.5 divided by .75. You will have enough to serve six guests, and no ice cream left over.
The square root of 64 is greater than the square root of 25; (square root sign) 64 > (square root sign) 25
Answer:
Devante is 23 and Savannah is 32.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a system of equations.
s - savannah's age
d - devante's age
s = d + 9
s + d = 53
Now we can substitute (d + 9) for s in the second equation.
(d + 9) + d = 53
2d + 9 = 53
2d = 46
<u>d = 23</u>
To find Savannah's age, we just add 9 to Devante's age. (plugging in 23 for d)
23 + 9 = 32
<u>s = 32</u>
Subtract the amount you have from the amount you need:
2 cups - 1 3/8 cups
Subtract the whole cup first:
2 cups -1 cup = 1 cup
8/8 = 1
Rewrite 1 as 8/8 then subtract the 3/8 you have:
8/8 - 3/8 = 5/8
You need 5/8 cup more
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
An easy way to find any percentage of a number is to multiply with decimals. To do this you have to first convert the percentage to a decimal. Do this by moving the decimal point in the percentage 2 places to the left. This means that 2.0% becomes 0.02. Then, multiply this decimal by the whole number. So, 0.02*350. This equals 7, which is 2% of 350.
This same trick will work with any problem. For example 38% of 435 is the same as 0.38*435, which equals 165.3.
