How do you figure out a fraction of a whole number

Mathematics

You have to divide the number by the denominator of the fraction. For example, if you want to find 1/5 of 20, you have to divide 20 by 5 and that tells you that 1/5 of 20 is 4.

Please help pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

-4 5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

-23/3 + (-11/2) + 35/4

<em>Find a common denominator (12).</em>

-92/12 + (-66/12) + 105/12

<em>Reform the equation to have this as a single fraction.</em>

(-92 + (-66) + 105)/12

<em>Subtract 66 from -92 to get -158.</em>

(-158 + 105)/12

<em>Add 105 to -158 to get -53.</em>

-53/12

<em>Convert into a mixed number by dividing by 12.</em>

-4 5/12 (Choice A) is your answer.

Someone please help me
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

5.625

Step-by-step explanation:

So first do 112 / 360

Simplify it = 28 / 90 = 14 / 45

So 1.75 is 14 / 45 of the circumference.

The whole circumference is 1.75 * (45 / 14)

So the answer is 45 / 8 = 5.625

Instructions for a blanket call for 36 yards of yarn. A skein of yarn has 6 feet in in. How many skeins of yarn do you need?
Aloiza [94]
For this case the first thing you should know is the following unit conversion:
 1 yard = 3 feet
 Applying the conversion we have:
 6 * (1/3) = 2 yards
 Therefore the number of skeins of yarn is:
 N = (36) / (2)
 N = 18
 Answer:
 
You need 18 skeins of yarn
