You want to know the factor by which 3 2/3 is multiplied to get 7 1/3.
1. You can estimate that it is 2 from 7/3 ≈ 2, then check by multiplication to see if that is right.
.. 2*(3 2/3) = 6 4/3 = 7 1/3 . . . . 2 is the correct factor.
2. You can divide 7 1/3 by 3 2/3 to see what the factor is.
.. (7 1/3)/(3 2/3) = (22/3)/(11/3) = 22/11 = 2 . . . . 2 is the factor Earl used.
3. You could see how many times you can subtract 3 2/3 from 7 1/3.
.. 7 1/3 -3 2/3 = (7 -3) +(1/3 -2/3) = 4 -1/3 = 3 2/3 . . . . . subtracting once gives 3 2/3
.. 3 2/3 -3 2/3 = 0 . . . . . . subtracting twice gives 0, so the factor is 2.
4. You could add 3 2/3 to see how many times it takes to get 7 1/3.
.. 3 2/3 +3 2/3 = (3 +3) +(2/3 +2/3) = 6 +4/3 = 7 1/3
We only need to add two values of 3 2/3 to get 7 1/3, so the factor is 2.

Answer:
21.74 But if it tells you to round I would round to 21 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
its basically just a ratio of 92 to 20
92/20=4.6
92-20=72% the amount that is lost
so given that the plum is 100 lbs we know that 72% is depleted
(72/92 = .78)X100= 78 lbs depleted
Lastly 100-78 =22 for the remaining weight of the prunes.
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
i have no idea
well
8 * 2 = 16 just as
4 * 4 = 16
hope this helps:)
Answer:
It will take 22.5 weeks for her to save up to buy the dress.
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 of $6.00 is 2.
(6 ÷ 3 = 2)
So she's saving $2 each week.
Now we need to divide $45 by $2 to get the number of weeks.
45 ÷ 2 = 22.5
