Answer:

3 1/3 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 20 gallons and 6 families. We want to divide the 20 gallons equally amongst the 6 families. The key word here is "divide". We want to use division:

20 gallons ÷ 6 families = 20/6 gallon per family = 10/3 gallons per family

= 3\frac{1}{3} gallons per family

Thus, each family got 3 1/3 gallons.

Hope this helps!

Chad had 30 dollars to spend on 3 gifts. He spent 9 dollars on gift A and 6
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Chad had 15 dollars left for gift C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Chad had total amount = 30 dollars.

Amount spend on gift A = 9 dollars.

Amount spend on gift B = 6 dollars.

To Find:

Amount Left for gift C = ?

Solution:

Total Amount = 30 dollars.

Total number of gifts = 3 i .e Gift A, Gift B , Gift C.

Total amount spend for  Gift A and Gift B = Amount spend on gift A + Amount spend on gift B

∴ Total amount spend for  Gift A and Gift B = 9 + 6

∴ Total amount spend for  Gift A and Gift B = 15 dollars.

Now,

Amount Left for Gift C = Total Amount - Total amount spend for  Gift A and Gift B.

∴ Amount Left for Gift C = 30 - 15

∴ Amount Left for Gift C =  15 dollars

What is the ratio of a to b 9/17= 3a/ a+b<br><br> 3/14<br> 6/17<br> 13/17<br> 50/9
Anarel [89]

Answer:

3/14

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the ratio of a to b, or a/b

9/17 = 3a/ (a+b)

Multiply each side by 17

17*9/17 =17* 3a/ (a+b)

9 = 51 a/ (a+b)

Multiply each side by (a+b)

9 (a+b) = 51a

Distribute  the 9

9a +9b = 51a

Subtract 9a from each side

9a-9a +9b =51a-9a

9b = 42a

Divide each side by b

9b/b = 42a/b

9 = 42a/b

Divide each side by 42

9/42 = a/b

But we can simplify 9/42 because each is divisible by 3, so divide 9 and 42 by 3

3/14 = a/b
