Hello!

Let's find what 1/8 of 8 kilograms is, because that'll help us find 6/8 of them.

Now, you can find 1/8 of 8 kilograms using many different ways, but I just prefer this one.

8 ÷ 8 = 1

Multiply this by the numerator of the fraction that represents how much that guests ate.

1 × 6 = 6

ANSWER:

The guests ate 6 kilograms of the food.

They answer is they ate 6 kilos! of the 8 kilos because you have to reduce 6/8 to 3/4 and 3/4 of 8 is 6.

Which expression is equivalent to...
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

8m^5

Step-by-step explanation:

Well we can simplify the numerator, by multiplying the 4 by the 6 and the m^3 and m^4 (add the exponents, explained in one of my previous answers I think)

This gives us the fraction: \frac{24m^7}{3m^2}

We can now divide the m^7 by m^2 by subtracting the exponents, and the reason why this works, is you're simply cancelling out the m's, If we express this in expanded form we have the following fraction: \frac{24 * m * m * m * m * m * m * m}{3 * m * m}

Since there is two m's in the denominator and there is also two (more than two) m's in the numerator, we can cancel those two m's out, and we get the fraction:

\frac{24 * m * m * m * m * m}{3} which can be simplified in exponent form as: \frac{24m^5}{3}, now all we have to do is divide the 24 by the 3, to get 8

This gives us the answer: 8m^5

The ratio of hamburgers to hot dogs is 6 to 5. Three times the number of hot dogs is 6 more than twice the number of hamburgers.
Kitty [74]

Answer:the number of hot dogs is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of hamburgers.

Let y represent the number of hot dogs.

The ratio of hamburgers to hot dogs is 6 to 5. This means that the ratio of x to y is 6/5

x/y = 6/5

5x = 6y

x = 6y/5

Three times the number of hot dogs is 6 more than twice the number of hamburgers. This means that

3y = 2x + 6 - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 6y/5 into equation 1, it becomes

3y = 2(6y/5) + 6

3y = 12y/5 + 6

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 5, it becomes

15y = 12y + 30

15y - 12y = 30

3y = 30

y = 30/3 = 10

x = 6y/5 = 6×10/5

x = 60/5 = 12
