Adam has 4 1/2 or 4.5 ounces of pumpkin seeds.
To find the answer you need to multiply 12 by 3/8 because the word each means multiplication
So 12*3/8=12/1*3/8 because to multiply whole numbers by fractions you first need to convert 12 into a fraction so 12 as a fraction is 12/1.Next you multiply across so you will end up having 36/8.Then you can reduce 36/8 and you will end up having 9/2.(you simplify by looking at which number could go into 36 and 8 and in this case it would be 4 then you have to divide 36 and 8 by 4).
Finally you convert 9/2 into a mixed number and you will end up with 4 1/2.(you convert an improper fraction into a mixed number by dividing the numerator by your denominator).

How do you identify the necessary information that is missing from a problem?
alexdok [17]

Answer:

  It depends

Step-by-step explanation:

Identifying what is <em>not there</em> is always difficult. In the general case, the range of possibilities is infinite.

For relatively simple math problems, the problem statement usually gives a context and asks a question. The context will generally tell you the nature of the relationships that apply. The question will generally be answered by making use of the relationships to relate given information to requested information.

If a relationship involves 4 items, one is "unknown" (that you're asked to find), and only 2 are given, then you know the missing information is the remaining item in the relationship.

Often, you can work a problem a number of ways, so the information that is missing depends on the method you choose for working the problem.

___

In complicated multi-step problems, relationships may need to be developed, theorems proved, massive amounts of data examined, and more. In some cases, whole new areas of mathematics may need to be invented.

A 1.50 liter sample of dry air in a cylinder exerts a pressure of 3.00 atmospheres at a temperature of 25oC. Without change in t
cricket20 [7]
The answer is 4.5 l

To calculate this, we will use the Boyle's law using constant k, pressure P, and volume V:

 PV = k

We can forget temperature since it is constant.

We have:

P1V1 = k

P2V2 = k

So, P1V1 = P2V2

P1 = 3 atm

V1 = 1.5 l

P2 = 1 atm

V2 = ?

_____

P1V1 = P2V2

3 atm * 1.5 l = 1 atm * V2

4.5 atm/l = 1 atm * V2

V2 = 4.5 atm l / 1 atm

V2 = 4.5 l
