Question #10:

To find what fraction of an onion is used per serving, divide the total amount of onion by the total number servings.

1/2 ÷ 6 = 1/12

Therefore, 1/12 of an onion was used per serving.

Question #12:

1/2 of 3/4 means that we multiply 1/2 to 3/4.

3/4 * 1/2 → 3/8

3/4 of 1/2 means we multiply 3/4 to 1/2.

1/2 * 3/4 → 3/8

Therefore, both expressions are similar.

Best of Luck!

Nata [24]

Answer:

$u = -45$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Multiply both sides by -9/2</u>

<u /> $-\frac{2}{9}u = 10$

$-\frac{9}{2} *-\frac{2}{9}u = 10 * -\frac{9}{2}$

$u = -\frac{90}{2}$

$u = -45$

John is 3 years older than Jim. Jim is 4 years less than half of Dana’s age. How old is each person if their ages add up to 167?

kogti [31]

Solution:

we are given that

John is 3 years older than Jim. Jim is 4 years less than half of Dana’s age.

Let the age of Jim be x years then we can say

Age of John $=x+3$

If diana Age is D then

$x=D/2-4$

It can be re-wriiten as

Diana age $D=2x+8$

Given that their ages add up to 167

$x+x+3+2x+8=167\\
\\
4x+11=167\\
\\
4x=167-11\\
\\
4x=156\\
\\
x=39\\$

Hence jim is 39 nyears old, John is 39+3=42 years old. and Diana is 2*39+8=78+8=86 years old.
