She puts 11 pieces of fruit into each bag.
Multiply this by the number of people going on the trip
The number is 4. 15-6=8 divide that by 2 and you are left with 4

Answer:
<em>Every people at dinner received one-tenth of the original turkey= 0.1</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Proportions</u>
If some fraction a/b of a whole total M is to be computed and later removed, we proceed as follows
* Compute the portion to be removed as a/b*M
* Subtract it from the total quantity: M-a/b*M=M(1-a/b)
I'm assuming 1/5 of the turkey was lost due to overcooking. It means that (1-1/5) of the turkey remained for dinner, that is, 4/5 of the turkey.
Each people at dinner received the same amount of the remaining, so we must divide 4/5 by 8, to get 4/40, or 1/10. It means that every people at dinner received one-tenth of the original turkey
Answer:
A. 46,000
B. 24,000
C. 51,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Follow the rule, 5 or over round up.
First get like things on the same side:
-5/6b - 1/2b= -2/3 - 3/4
Then find equivalent fractions to make the equation easier to solve.
-5/6b - 3/6b= -8/12 - 9/12
Then just add things together and solve.
-8/6b= -17/12
-8b= 6(-17/12)
-8b= -17/2
b= (-17/2)/-8
b= 17/16
You can then plug the answer back into the original question to make sure it is the correct answer.
