By simplifying the number given which is 8 2/3, we get an improper fraction of 26/3. Also, when we try to divide 26 by 3, we get an answer of 8.6667, with 6 as a repeating number after the decimal place. Therefore, this number is an example of real and rational number. Thus the answer is the second choice.
1/2 because there is 7 girls and 7 boys in total
Answer:
figure skates will be $1 cheaper.
Explanation:
<u>given equation</u>:
- to rent figure skates : f(x) = 1.50x + 2
- to rent hockey skates : h(x) = 2x +1.5
<u>solve for rent of figure skates</u>:
f(x) = 1.50x + 2.00
f(3) = 1.50(3) + 2.00
f(3) = 6.5
<u>solve for rent of hockey skates</u>:
h(x) = 2x + 1.5
h(3) = 2(3) +1.5
h(3) = 7.5
<u>cheaper - figure skates than hockey skates</u>:
$7.5 - $6.5
$1
Answer:
Milford location has a higher ratio of hamsters to gerbils.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
A pet supply chain called Pet City has 5 hamsters and 10 gerbils for sale at its Lanberry location.
At its Milford location, there are 13 hamsters and 16 gerbils.
Now, to find the location who has a higher ratio of hamsters to gerbils.
Ratio of hamsters to gerbils at Lanberry location = 5:10.

Ratio of hamsters to gerbils at Milford location= 13:16.

<em>So, 0.8125 > 0.50.</em>
<em>Thus, </em><u><em>13:16 > 5:10.</em></u><em> </em>
Therefore, Milford location has a higher ratio of hamsters to gerbils.
