<h3>Answer:</h3>

The tank can hold up to 9 gallons.

Quick Review:

By doing the inverse of 7/12, 12/7, when you multiply it, you'll get a value of 1.

7/12 * 12/7 = 1

Doing the Problem:

By multiplying 5 1/4 by 12/7, you'll get the answer. But first, convert 5 1/4 into an improper fraction.

5 1/4 ---> 21/4

Okay, lets go!

21/4 * 12/7 = 252/28

<u>When reduced, this gives you the answer 9/1, or 9 gallons.</u>

Hope that helps, :)

The ratio of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 3:4:8 what are the measures of the angles?
evablogger [386]

Answer:

36 and 48 and 96

Step-by-step explanation:

add 3+4+8=15

all of the angles in a triangle have to add up to 180

so 180÷15=12

now for this ratio, each part will equal 12

so we have to multiply each of the parts by 12

3×12=36

4×12=48

8×12=96

those are the measures of the angles

you can add them up again and see that they equal 180

you can try dividing and you will see that they also equal the ratio

Derek uses a 136 cm flat steel bar that weighs 4 kg to make rack in the garage. Determine the weight of a 170 cm steel bar
Bumek [7]

The weight of a 170 cm steel bar will be 5 Kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Derek uses a 136 cm flat steel bar that weighs 4 kg to make rack in the garage.

1 kg = 1000 gm

So the weight of 1 cm steel bar will be  \frac{4 }{136} kg

Weight of 1 cm bar = \frac{4000}{136} gm

Let the weight of a 170 cm steel bar will be \frac{4000 }{136} × 170 gm

⇒4000 × 1.25 gm

⇒ 5000 gm

⇒5 kg

Hence, the weight of a 170 cm steel bar will be 5 Kg

Julio caught 3 fish weighing a total of 23 1/2 pounds. One fish weighed 9 5/8 pounds and another weighed 6 1/4 pounds. How much
Airida [17]
So we need to know what 23 1/2 + 9 5/8 + 6 1/4 is.
first, we need to make them into equivalent fraction. 
so...
23 1/2 can be 23 4/8
9 5/8 and
6 1/4 can be 6 2/8
let's add the whole numbers.
23 + 9 + 6 = 38
4/8 + 5/8 + 2/8 = 11/8 = 1 3/8
so 38 + 1 3/8 is 39 3/8
the answer is 39 3/8 pounds
