Hey!
If 112 people are getting cake and 5/8 are getting chocolate, that means the remaining will get chocolate.
8/8 - 5/8 = 3/8
3/8 are getting chocolate. You have to find 3/8 of 112.
3/8 × 112 = 336/8 = 42
42 people are getting carrot cake
:)
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
The largest integer is 144, and the other two numbers are 143 and 142.
Given:
Total width = 24 inches
Wanted width = 2 1/2 inches = 2.5 inches
Now,
To find how many stripes of wood with this width can be made, we need to divide the total width by the wanted width.
So,
24/2.5 = 9.6
So,
Since, .6 is not a full stripe of wood, we only loook at the whole number.
So,
9 stripes of wood can be cut with that width.
