Why does it take 3 copies of 1/6 to show the amount as 1 copy of 1/2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Elena L [17]3 years ago
6 0

3 copies of 1/6 makes it 1 copy 1/2 because 3 times of 1/6 is 3/6 which is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3 times 1/6 = 3/6

which is 1/2.

Hence it takes 3 copies of 1/6 to show the amount as 1 copy of 1/2

Alternatively,

1/6+1/6+1/6= 1/2

3/6=1/2

1/2=1/2

A 2X2 square is centered at the origin. It is dilated by a factor of 3. What are coordinates of the vertices of the square?
Vesna [10]

Answer:

The vertices are:

A' = (-3, -3)

B' = (3, -3)

C' = (3, 3)

D' = (-3, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A 2 x 2 square is centered at the origin.

So, the center of the square is (0, 0)

Since it is 2 x 2 square, the side of the square is 2 units.

So, the vertices of the 2 x 2 square are A (-1, -1),  B(1, -1), C(1. 1), D(-1, 1)

The above square is dilated by a factor of 3.

Let's name the dilated square A'B'C'D'

To find the coordinates of the vertices of dilated square, we need to multiply each vertices of ABCD by 3.

A(-1, -1) = 3(-1, -1) = A'(-3, -3)

B(1, -1) = 3(1, -1) = B'(3, -3)

C(1, 1) = 3(1, 1) = C'(3, 3)

D(-1, 1) = 3(-1, 1) = D'(-3, 3)

Susan deposits $1,200 in an account that earns 8% simple interest annually.
spayn [35]

interest = principal x rate x time

interest = 1344-1200 = 144

principal = 1200

rate = 8% = .08

144 = 1200 x .08 x Time

Time = 1.5 yrs

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

1.79% chance or \frac{6}{343}

Step-by-step explanation:

7+3+4=14

chance of yellow \frac{3}{14}

chance of orange \frac{4}{14}

\frac{3}{14} * \frac{4}{14} *\frac{4}{14}  =  \frac{6}{343}
