108/4 = 27 pieces you multiply 36 x 3 = 108 and the denominator stays the same so 108/4 equals to 27 pieces

Ratio Question;
SashulF [63]

*Given

Money of Phoebe            - 3 times as much as Andy

Money of Andy                - 2 times as much as Polly

Total money of Phoebe,  - £270

   Andy and Polly

*Solution

Let

B - Phoebe's money

A - Andy's money

L - Polly's money

1. The money of the Phoebe, Andy, and Polly, when added together would total £270. Thus,

                 B + A + L  = £270                     (EQUATION 1)

2. Phoebe has three times as much money as Andy and this is expressed as

 

                 B = 3A

3. Andy has twice as much money as Polly and this is expressed as

                 A = 2L                           (EQUATION 2)

4. This means that Phoebe has ____ as much money as Polly,

                B = 3A

                B = 3 x (2L)

                B = 6L                            (EQUATION 3)

This step allows us to eliminate the variables B and A in EQUATION 1 by expressing the equation in terms of Polly's money only.

5. Substituting B with 6L, and A with 2L, EQUATION 1 becomes,

                 6L + 2L + L = £270

                               9L = £270

                                 L = £30

So, Polly has £30.

6. Substituting L into EQUATIONS 2 and 3 would give us the values for Andy's money and Phoebe's money, respectively.

                 A = 2L                          

                 A = 2(£30)

                 A = £60

Andy has £60

                 B = 6L                        

                 B = 6(£30)

                 B = £180

Phoebe has £180

Therefore, Polly's money is £30, Andy's is £60, and Phoebe's is £180.

Jake’s measures the height of a tree to be 74 3/8
goblinko [34]

I'm assuming the question is asking how tall the tree is if it has grown 2 3/4 inches.

The initial height of the tree is 74 3/8 inches and it grows 2 3/4 inches after six months. We can add these two numbers together to calculate the height of the tree now.

74\frac{3}{8} + 2\frac{3}{4}

Since these are both mixed numbers, we must find a common denominator to add our fractions. 8 is the lowest common denominator for 4 and 8. So:

74\frac{3}{8} + 2\frac{6}{8}

We can now add our whole numbers up (74 + 2) and add the numerators of the fractions together to get a single fraction (\frac{3}{8} + \frac{6}{8}).

74 + 2 = 76

\frac{3}{8} + \frac{6}{8} = \frac{9}{8}

Putting these two together, we get 76 \frac{9}{8}, which is equal to 77\frac{1}{8}.

We can also turn this answer into an improper fraction. This is done by multiplying the whole number by the denominator and adding the numerator. So in this case:

77 x 8 = 616

616 + 1 = 617

The denominator stays the same, so our answer as an improper fraction would be \frac{617}{8}.

So the tree is 77\frac{1}{8} inches tall, or \frac{617}{8} inches tall.
