Tony has 7/8 of a candy bar. he wants to split the bar into servings that are 3/10 of the bar. how many servings can he make?

1 answer:

3 0

Alright, so let's make both 7/8 and 3/10 into fractions with the same denominator.
The lowest common denominator for both of these is 80.
So, we multiply the top and bottom of 7/8 by 10, and the top and bottom of 3/10 by 8 to get fractions we can compare.
So, we have 70/80 of a candy bar, and we want to make servings of 24/80 each.
How many times can 24 go into 70? 2 times, with a remainder of 22.
So, Tony can make 2 servings.

$\dfrac{4x-8}{-3x}\cdot\dfrac{12}{12-6x}=\dfrac{4(x-2)}{-x}\cdot\dfrac{4}{-6(x-2)}=\dfrac{4}{-x}\cdot\dfrac{4}{-6}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{-x}\cdot\dfrac{4}{-3}=\dfrac{(2)(4)}{(-x)(-3)}=\dfrac{8}{3x}$

Answer:

A good rule is to change 10 to 15 percent of the water each week. If your tank is heavily stocked, bump that up to 20 percent each week. A lightly stocked aquarium can maybe get by for two to four weeks, but this should be the maximum length of time between water changes.
