16/3 = 5 and 1/3.

you get your answer by dividing 3 into 16, and you get 5 r1, you then make the dividend (5) the whole number, and 1/3 would be your fraction.

A mixed number is an integer--whole number--in front of a fraction. To calculate this, you have to divide the numerator by the denominator and put the remainder over the denominator.

Since 3 goes into 16 wholly 5 <em />times with 1 left over, 16/3 = 5 1/3.

Hope this helps!

The length of a rectangle is 3 yd less than twice the width, and the area of the rectangle is 44 yd^2 Find the dimensions of the

vovangra [49]

Answer:

width: 5.5 yd; length: 8 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width of the rectangle in yards. Then 2w-3 is the length and the area is the product of length and width:

w(2w-3) = 44

2w^2 -3w -44 = 0 . . . . put the equation into standard form

(w+4)(2w -11) = 0 . . . . . factor the equation

w = -4 or 11/2 . . . . . . . . the negative solution is extraneous

Then the length is 2·(11/2) -3 = 8.

The width of the rectangle is 5.5 yards; the length is 8 yards.

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\sf \text{The rate of the boat is } 53 \ km/h \text{, the rate of the current is }8\ km/h \ \ }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, let's note v the rate of the boat and r the rate of the current. We can write the following

$\dfrac{135}{v-r}=3=\dfrac{183}{v+r}$

It means that

$135(v+r)=183(v-r)\\\\135 v + 135r=183v-183r\\\\\text{ *** We regroup the terms in v on the right and the ones in r to the left***}\\\\(135+183)r=(183-135)v\\\\318r=48v\\\\\text{ *** We divide by 48 both sides ***}\\\\\boxed{v = \dfrac{318}{48} \cdot r= \dfrac{159}{24} \cdot r}$

But we can as well use the second equation:

$3(v+r)=183\\\\v+r=\dfrac{183}{3}=61\\\\\dfrac{159}{24}r+r=61\\\\\dfrac{159+24}{24}r=61\\\\\boxed{r = \dfrac{61*24}{183}=8}$

and then

$\boxed{v=\dfrac{159*8}{24}=53}$

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you
