Answer:

$\frac{27}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To get rid of the decimal point in the numerator, we count the numbers after the decimal in 3.375, and multiply the numerator and denominator by 10 if it is 1 number, 100 if it is 2 numbers, 1000 if it is 3 numbers, and so on.

Therefore, in this case we multiply the numerator and denominator by 1000 to get the following fraction:

$\frac{3375}{1000}$

Then, we need to divide the numerator and denominator by the greatest common divisor (GCD) to simplify the fraction.

The GCD of 3375 and 1000 is 125. When we divide the numerator and denominator by 125, we get the following:

$\frac{27}{8}$

An olympic sprinter can run 56 yards in 8 seconds. At the same rate, how long (in seconds) would it take the sprinter to run 81

aniked [119]

Answer:

20,365.7 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to know how to convert yards to miles, as the question is in miles. We know that 1 mile is equivalent to 1760 yards. So we have:

1 mi = 1760 yards

If we multiply both sides by 81:

81 mi = 142,560‬ yards

And we know that the sprinter needs 8 second to run 56 yards:

8 s = 56 yards

If we divide both sides by 56 we get the time he needs for 1 yard:

8/56 s = 56/56 yards

1/7 s = 1 yard

So, takes him 1/7 seconds to run one yard. At this rate he runs 142,560 yards in:

(1/7) * 142,560 = 20,365.7

So, he needs 20,365.7 seconds to run 81 miles (142,560 yards)

A baker is using a cookie that calls for 2 1/4 cups of flour to yield 36 cookies, how much flour will the baker neeto to make 90

andre [41]

Answer:

$5 \frac{5}{8}$ cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A baker is using a cookie that calls for 2 $\frac{1}{4}$ cups of flour to yield 36 cookies.

To find the number of flour will the baker need to make 90 cookies, we form a proportion.

Let's convert 2 $\frac{1}{4}$ to improper fraction.

$2\frac{1}{4} = \frac{(2*4) + 1}{4} = \frac{9}{4}$

Let "x" be the amount flour to make 90 cookies

Amount of Flour Number of cookies

$\frac{9}{4}$ 36

x 90

Now form a proportion.

$\frac{\frac{9}{4}}{x} = \frac{36}{90}$

Now let's cross multiply, we get

$\frac{9}{4} *90 = 36x\\\$

$\frac{810}{4} = 36x\\x = \frac{810 }{4*36} \\x = \frac{810}{144} \\\\x = 5 \frac{90}{144}$

Now let's simplify the fraction part, Here the GCF of 90 and 144 is 18, so dividing the fraction's numerator and the denominator by 18, we get

x = $5 \frac{5}{8}$ cups

So the baker needs $5 \frac{5}{8}$ cups to make 90 cookies.

Simplify. please7−5x−(3+5x) 4 + 10x44−10x10 + 10x

Alenkasestr [34]

Simplify the expression:

7 - 5x - (3 + 5x)

Operate the parentheses. Each term changes its signs because the minus sign represents a -1:

7 - 5x - (3 + 5x) = 7 - 5x - 3 - 5x

Collect like terms:

7 - 5x - (3 + 5x) = 7 - 3 -5x - 5x

Simplify:

7 - 5x - (3 + 5x) = 4 - 10x

Answer: 4 - 10x
