Answer:

\frac{2}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A car starts with a dull tank of gas

1/7 of the gas has been used around the city.

With the rest of the gas in the car, the car can travel to and from Ottawa three times.

Question asked:

What fractions of a tank of gas does each complete trip to Ottawa use?

Solution:

Fuel used around the city = \frac{1}{7}

Remaining fuel after driving around the city = 1 - \frac{1}{7}

                                                                         =    \frac{7 - 1}{7}  = \frac{6}{7}

According to question:

As from the rest of the gas in the car that is \frac{6}{7}, the car can complete 3 trip to Ottawa  which means,

By unitary method:

The car can complete 3 trip by using = \frac{6}{7} tank of gas.

The car can complete 1 trip by using =  \frac{6}{7} \div 3

                                                             =\frac{6}{7} \times\frac{1}{3}

                                                             =  \frac{6}{21}

                                                             = \frac{2}{7} tank of gas

Thus, \frac{2}{7} tank of gas used for each complete trip to Ottawa.

I think you divide 20 and 8 ... I just took a wild guess, I'm not the best at shape/figure questions, so I'm really sorry.
Hopefully that helped! :)

Given: y=\cos x+3

To find: maximum and minimum of the cosine curve

Solution:

A coordinate plane is a two-dimensional plane formed by the intersection two axis: x-axis and y-axis.

These two axes are perpendicular to each other.

Multiply. Express in simplest form. 3/8 x 1/2
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

the answer is 3/16.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's take a look at the expression itself.

We have to multiply 3/8 and 1/2, which gives us the expression of

3/8*1/2

then, we multiply the numerator by the numerator and get 3, then we multiply the denominator by the other denominator which gets us 16. We put the two parts together and get

3/16

which is not simplifiable. So 3/16 is the simplest answer we can get.
