The boys's is incorrect. There is no need to make the subject plural when showing possession. One S correctly serves both purposes.

The fraction bars represent which equation? A fraction bar is labeled 1. Underneath the bar, 4 boxes are labeled one-fourth. Und

Answer:

Three-fourths divided by one-eighth = 6 (D)

Explanation:

For the first layer, Total = 1

Second layer:

1 is divided into 4 places = 1/4

So we have 1/4 in 4 places

The total of the second layer = 1/4×4 = 1

Third layer:

Each 1/4 is divided into 2 = 1/4÷2

= 1/4× 1/2 = 1/8

1/4 in 4 places = 1/8 in 2(4) places

= 1/8 in 8 places

Total of third layer = 1/8×8 = 1

Find attached the diagram derived from the above used in solving the question.

We are to find the fraction bars that represent the equation.

For those circled: 6 of the 1/8 in the third layer are under 3 of the 1/4 in the second layer.

Since under those circled, there are 6 boxes with 1/8, the fraction bar that would represent the equation would be equal to 6 in the left and right hand side of the equation.

The fraction bars that represent the equation = 3(1/4) ÷ 1/8

= 3/4 × 8/1 = 6

Therefore, Three-fourths divided by one-eighth = 6 (D)

Answer:

The sentence that would best resolve this series of events in a descriptive narrative is:

In no time, I had a garden of giant golden flowers soaring toward the sky.

Explanation:

We were given the beginning, the middle, and the end of a sequence of events. Now, we are being asked to choose a resolution. In literature, resolution is what comes after the climax, when the conflicts have been solved and things have worked out.

In the "end", we were told the speaker could already see the seedlings start to break through the freshly watered soil. For that reason, our choice for resolution must be something that takes place after that. All options, except for the first one, narrate something that would take place before the seeds were planted or before they germinated. The only option that narrates something that happens afterwards is the first one: "In no time, I had a garden of giant golden flowers soaring toward the sky." That is why this is the best option for a resolution.

Read the excerpt from "When Fear Was Stronger Than Justice":

lisov135 [29]

Frist logical connection between the two is that Manzanar Internment and the Japanese living in West Coast of USA are both Japanese people forced to live in isolation because American government thought that Japanese had invaded Pearl Harbour and they must be looked upon with suspicion.

Secondly,in both the cases ,innocent Japanese may have suffered isolation because"Fear was Stronger than Justice".American government was not ready to listen to Japanese people living in USA whether they were innocent or not.They could be potential spy ,ready and willing to assist Japanese in invasion.
