Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First you would do 5 multiplied by the numerator and then make it a mixed number so 5×5 = 25/8 as a mixed number its 3 and 1/8 so it falls between 2 and 4
Let the unknown number be x.
5/11 * x = 55
Since x is being multiplied by 5/11, and you want x alone, you need to multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 5/11 which 11/5.
11/5 * 5/11 * x = 55/1 * 11/5
x = 605/5
x = 121
Answer: The number is 121.
48 gallons... since the first shower head gives 9 gallons per minute you multiply 9 by 8 then you use the equation and multiply 3 by 8 then you subtract the two shower heads
Answer:
2/3
Use the rise over run formula and then simplify
Set up a proportion. 6/10 = 9/x. cross multiply so x times 6 = 6x. And 10 times 9 = 90. so 6x=90. Then 90 and 6x divided by 6. which gets you x=15. The 9 ft tall elephant will cast a 15 ft shadow.
