Yes because 1/2 is right on the half and 2/7 is les than the half. You can also use the butterfly method. 1 times 7 is 7 and 2 times 2 is 4 1/2 is greater because 7 us greater than 4

A sandwich decrease from $8 to $6 what is the percentage decrease
kati45 [8]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the difference in price= $8-$6 = $2

Now, find percentage decrease in the price of sandwich.

Percentage decrease= (difference in price/ original price) *100

                                   = \frac{2}{8} *100

                                   =\frac{200}{8}

Percentage decrease=25%

Basketball player made 36 free throws in 16 games. Find the ratio of free throws to games.
Misha Larkins [42]
36 free throws , 16 games
ratio of free throws to games is 36:16 which reduces to 9:4

u have to pay attention to the wording of problems such as these..because if it would have asked for the ratio of games to free throws, it would have been 16:36 = 4:9

seraphim [82]
12 3/8 ÷ 3/4

change the mixed fraction to improper....

99         3
__  ÷     __
8             4

now change the sign to a multiplication sign and flip 3/4.

99   4       396
__× __=  _____
8       3       24

396/24..... that changes to 16 22/24. Simplify it and it will be 16 11/12.

Find the hypotenuse of each isosceles right triangle when the legs are of the given measure. 6 sqrt 2
Gemiola [76]
Isosceles right triangles have two equal sides (a and b) that are not the hypotenuse (c). And when two sides are equal, so are their opposite angles. There are only 180° degrees in any triangles, thus the right angle = 90°, so 90 left for the two equal, means that 2x=90,
x = 45°.

There are several ways to go about solving a triangle like this. The best and easiest is simply to memorize that the hypotenuse is exactly root2 times the other sides. Or, each isosceles side is the hypotenuse (c) ÷ root2
a = b = c \div  \sqrt{2} \\ c  = a\sqrt{2}  \\ c = 6 \sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{2}  = 6 \times 2 = 12
Another way to do it is the longer proof of Pythagorean Theorem:
{c}^{2}  =  {a}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}... \:  \:  c =   \sqrt{({a}^{2}  +  {b}^{2})}  \\
c= \sqrt{({6 \sqrt{2}) }^{2} + ({6 \sqrt{2})}^{2}}  \\ =  \sqrt{(2 \times{(6 \sqrt{2} )}^{2} )}  =  \sqrt{2(36 \times 2)}  \\ c =  \sqrt{144}  = 12
