Hi there!
Your answer is:
2 & 1/4 <u>OR</u> 2.25 cups fills the container!
Step-by-step explanation:
If 1 & 1/2 (aka 3/2) fills 2/3 of the container, then:
we know that <em>half</em> of 3/2s fills 1/3 of the container
To find half of 3/2, we multiply 3/2 by the <em><u>inverse</u></em> of 2, which is 1/2.
3/2÷2
3/2×1/2 = 3/4 ths
Now that we know 3/4ths fills 1/3 of the container, we add that to 1& 1/2.
3/4+ 1&1/2 = 2 & 1/4
Check your work!
3/4 × 3 should equal 2&1/4 if we are correct
3/4 × 3/1 = 9/4.
Simplify!
9/4 = 2&1/4
That tells us that <u>we</u><u> </u><u>are</u><u> </u><u>correct</u><u>!</u>
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The correct answer is 67 9/11
Micheal has 40ft of fencing for the rectangular dog run. So the perimeter of the dog run is 40ft.
Perimeter=40ft
The perimeter of a rectangle is:
P=2l+2w
Since we know the length is 5 and the perimeter is 40, we can solve for the width.
P=2l+2w
40=2*(5)+2w
40=10+2w
subtract 10 from both sides
30=2w
divide both sides by 2
15=w
The width of the fence is 15feet.
Answer:
-9-5x
Step-by-step explanation:
they aren't the same because of the variable on 5x. You can simplify the problem to -9-5x but that's about it unless it equals something.
