Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the floor of the rectangular room that is 12 feet by 15 feet. The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as

Area = length × width

Area of the rectangular room would be

12 × 15 = 180 feet²

The tiles are square with side lengths 1 1/3 feet. Converting 1 1/3 feet to improper fraction, it becomes 4/3 feet

Area if each tile is

4/3 × 4/3 = 16/9 ft²

The number of tiles needed to cover the entire floor is

180/(16/9) = 180 × 9/16

= 101.25

102 tiles would be needed because the tiles must be whole numbers.

When two fractions refer to the same whole explain why the fraction with a lesser denominator has larger pieces than the fractio
dexar [7]
Because there are less pieces the whole is split up into. For instance, if you have 1 bag of cookies, you would get more cookies per person if it was split between 2 people than if it was split between 10, because each person gets more of the whole, and there's less people to split up that whole.
since you have an equal amount of pieces from each, the whole that was split into the least pieces, or the number with the smaller denominator will be larger since the pieces will be larger

Mrs. Davis bought 6 pounds of grapes for $18. At this rate, how much would 72 ounces of grapes have cost?
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 pound = 16 ounce

6 pound = 6 * 16 = 96 ounces

Cost of 96 ounces of grapes = $18

Cost of 1 ounce of grape = 18/96

Cost of 72 ounces of grape = 18*72 / 96 = 27/2

                                              = $13.50

Or

Direct Proportion because is weight increase, the cost will increase

96:18 = 72 : x

Product of means = Product of extremes

18*72 = x*96

18*72/96 = x

x =$13.50

The difference of two numbers is 15.The larger number is 1 more than 3 times the smaller number. Find the two numbers
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2) let the two numbers be x and y

x-y =15

(taking x to be big)

x = 3 (y)+1

i.e. x-3y =1

Subtracting we get

2y =14 or y =7

x =15+7 =22

Larger number is 22 and smaller number is 7

-----------------------------------

Alysha is 2 years younger than Bryce/

Let Alysha be x years old then Bryce would be x+2

Sum of their ages

=x+x+2 =28

2x+2 =28

2x=26

x=13

Hence Alysha is 13 years old and Bryce 14 years old.
