Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is asking you to simplify the fraction 40/60. You can factor out the number 20 from both:
Now you can cancel 20 from the top (numerator) and the bottom (denominator) and get 2/3 as your final answer.
It means the figure is 1/4 the size of the original figure
If there are 19 red marbles in every 1 black marble, and there’s a total of 120 marbles, that means 120/19, is equal to nearly 6.3 black marbles, but since you can’t split a marble in half, it would mean that there are 6 black marbles in total. Since, 19 * 6 is 114 & there’s a remainder of 6 to approach the final answer of 120, meaning there are 6 black marbles in the bag.
Answer:
0 handshakes
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 8 women of different heights.
Let the eight women be A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H
Assume A is taller than B and A decides to shake hands with B, B will refuse because A is taller. If this happens across the eight women then there will be 0 hand shakes.
If this assumption is taken out, we have 7+6+5+4+3+2+1 = 28
