fractions:
Fraction is a part of a whole, for example 1/2. Equivalent fractions are fractions that look different but show the same amount. Improper fractions have numerators that are higher than the denominator, while mixed fractions contain whole numbers and fractions.
In order to compare fractions, you need to change them so they have the same denominator. Fractions can be converted into decimals. You need to be able to work out a fraction of a given quantity.

How do we find 3/5 of 20?
Method 1 is to find 1/5 of 20, then multiply by 3.
1/5 of 20 is 20 ÷ 5 = 4.
We need 3/5 of 20, so we multiply 4 by 3.
3/5 of 20 = 4 × 3 = 12.
you can put this in your calculator:
3/5<span> × 20 = </span>3/5<span> × </span>20/1<span> = </span>60/5<span> = 12</span>
Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5x - 1 = 9
Add 1 to both sides
2/5x = 10
Multiply by 5 on both sides
2x = 50
Divide by 2 on both sides
x = 25
Check the answer:
Plug in 25 for x
2/5(25) - 1 = 9
10 - 1 = 9
9 = 9
The answer is correct.
In order to find each one, we need to divide 23.96/4 to find what each pound costs. After dividing, you get 5.99. Each pound costs 5.99. So for the first one just multiply 2x5.99 and get 11.98. And the second one shows 17.97 so we can just divide 17.97 by 5.99 and get 3. Just work off of that and you’ll get the rest! But the answer would turn out to be C because you add 5.99 to 23.96 and you get 29.95! Hope this helped

Answer:
6 ft/min
Step-by-step explanation:
Theres a neat trick to note; whenever you say per think of it as a fancy word for divide, because the label is always gonna be a/b (a per b)
Therefore,
the rate of feet per minute will be the feet divided by the minutes;
18 feet in 3 minutes = <u>18</u>/3 <u>ft</u>/min
Therefore the rate is 6 feet per minute.
<u>IF you need an explanation on what average rate implies:</u>
<em>Note; the word average is not prudent to answer as its extraneous, however if there was more data like "Cami descends 18 ft in 3 min and Nami descends 9 ft in 3 minutes; whats the average rate at which they descend" then you'd have to add the two rates up and divide by two.</em>
Hope this helps :)
