8/12. 4/6. 2/3 is the simplest. Just keep dividing it down until you can't divide anymore:)
Number of ounces left is 1120
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Find number of ounces left after each day.
Given total soup prepared each day = 15 gallons
Amount served each day = 1/4 of 15 = 15/4 gallons
Amount left after each day = 15 - 15/4 = 60 - 15/4 = 35/4 gallons
- Step 2: Convert gallons into ounces. 1 gallon = 128 ounces
35/4 gallons = 35/4 × 128 = 1120 ounces
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: Let x be the smaller and y be the largest number.
Since x+y=13, we deduce y=13-x
Now, for the translation: "two more than the larger number" is y+2 , while "twice the smaller" is 2x
Their sum is y+2+2x
And since we know that y=13-x, we have y+2+2x=13-x+2+2=15+x
