Beef to pork.....ratio 3:1....added = 4.....this is basically saying that 3/4 of the total meat is beef and 1/4 of the total meat is pork...and the total meat is 3 lbs.
3/4(3) = 9/4 = 2 1/4 lbs of beef
1/4(3) = 3/4 lbs of pork <===
Answer:
17/40
Step-by-step explanation:
First let's find the least common denominator. The denominators are 8 and 25 so we need to find the least common multiple of 8 and 25.
8=2*2*2
25=5*5
Since they share no common factors the least common multiple of 8 and 25 is 8*25 which is 200.
Now we convert the fractions:
5/8*25/25=125/200
5/25*8/8=40/200
Then we subtract:
125/200-40/200=85/200
Now we simplify it:
17/40
An integer is a number and it's opposite.
A negative integer goes to the left of zero on the number line.
An example of a negative integer and it's opposite is:
negative integer: -10
opposite of the negative integer (the positive integer or additive inverse): 10
Based on the given data above, the equation below has been generated,
(X mL)(0.003) + 75 mL (0.04) = 0.005 (75 + X); X being the amount in mL of the sugar solution, by further simplification of the generated equation, it can be said that 1312.5 mL of 0.30% sugar solution should be added to 75 mL of 4% solution to come up with a 0.5% sugar solution.
