When you divide a fraction by a fraction, you're really just multiplying by a reciprocal. A reciprocal is the fraction flipped around.
So, 1/8 <span>÷ 1/4 is the same thing as 1/8 x 4/1
Now, you just multiply. 1 times 4 is 4. 8 times 1 is 8.
1/8 x 4/1=4/8
4/8 simplified is 1/2
So that is how 1/8</span><span>÷1/4=1/2</span>
Answer: It will take Damon 6 weeks to save the money he needs to buy the snowboard
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's see what the problem is giving us:
-The variable X will represent the number of weeks it will take Damon to save the money he needs.
- Damon has $40
- Damon is going to safe $20 weekly
- The snowboard costs $160
Therefor:
Our equation will be: $40 + $20X = $160
Step 1
We need to isolate the variable by subtracting in both sides of the equation 40 in order to maintain the equality.
40 - 40 + 20X = 160 - 40
This will let us with 20X = 120
Step 2
We have to isolate the variable again, but this time (because the variable is being multiplied by 20) we have to divide on both sides of the equation.
20X/20 = 120/20
Therefore: X=6

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
11/6 or decimal 1.8333... + 4.9 = 6.733333....
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
(3 + 2/3)/2
Express 4/6 in its lowest form by cancelling out gcd(4, 6) = 2 from the numerator and denominator. 4/6 = (2×2)/(2×3) = 2/3:
(2/3 + 3)/2
Put 3 + 2/3 over the common denominator 3. 3 + 2/3 = (3×3)/3 + 2/3:
((3×3)/3 + 2/3)/2
3×3 = 9:
(9/3 + 2/3)/2
9/3 + 2/3 = (9 + 2)/3:
((9 + 2)/3)/2
9 + 2 = 11:
(11/3)/2
11/3×1/2 = 11/(3×2):
11/(3×2)
3×2 = 6:
Answer: 11/6 or decimal 1.8333... + 4.9 = 6.733333....
