Answer:

\frac{4}{1}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

2/20 : 1/40

A). First re-write the ratio as follows;

(i) Change the ratio sign to division (÷). i.e

2/20 ÷ 1/40

(ii) Solve the expression by changing the division to multiplication(×). This also means you will need to swap the numerator and the denominator of the second term. i.e (1 / 40) becomes (40 / 1)

(2/20) × (40 / 1) = \frac{2}{20} × \frac{40}{1} = \frac{4}{1}

B). Now convert the result from above to unit rate. A unit rate is a rate in which the denominator has a value of 1.

So to convert   \frac{4}{1}  to unit rate, we keep simplifying until the denominator becomes 1.

And since the denominator is already 1, there is no need for further simplification.

Therefore, 2/20 : 1/40 to unit rate is  \frac{4}{1}

Answer:4/1

Step-by-step explanation:

I say this because you are supposed to divided it and the answer is 4 then you find the answer choice with a 1 as the denominator and it should say 4/1 and that is the correct answer.

That is true. It is much cheaper and economically safer for farms to not grow organic foods. I’m fact, sometimes it is even better for the environment for food to not be grown organically as it puts less stress on the farmland.

Handles-n-Things is a small enterprise company buying new carpet for their office room. The room is 15 ft. wide and 24 ft. long.
Helen [10]

Hey there!

To find the area, we multiply the length by the width! The carpet will cover the area of the room.

24×15=360

But, the carpeting is sold in square yards, not feet. There are three feet in a yard, which means that one yard is 1/3 feet. Since we have 360 square feet, we will divide it by three to get yards.

360/3=120

Therefore, the office would need 120 square yards of carpeting.

Have a wonderful day!
