Answer:
28/165
Step-by-step explanation:
You always use the order of operations, and the order of operations says to solve parentheses first, so you would solve 5/9 - 1/6, and get 7/18.
You would do exponents next, if there were any, but there is not, so you move on to the next operation(s).
The next operations are multiplication and division. From left to right, multiplication is first, so you solve 8/11 x 7/18 and get 28/99. Then, there is a division problem to solve. The problem is 28/99 ÷ 15/9. If you solve that correctly, you will get the answer 28/165.
The next step would be to simplify 28/165, but it cannot be simplified, so you are left with the answer 28/165.
The equation of the given circle is :
So the value in the blanks will be :
Supposing that the trail mix was 5/8 pound, and Lisa gave 1/8 pound, then to know what is left we only have to subtract those fractions:
5/8 - 1/8 = 4/8
that is because we only subtract the numerators (upper part) of the fractions due to the fact that the denominators are equal, now, 4/8 can also simplify to 1/2
therefore there are left 4/8 pound of trail mix or, what is the same, 1/2 pound of it
They are the same weight I presume
