Answer:
She can only make 5/6 of her recipe with the amount of milk that she has.
Step-by-step explanation:
Some data of this problem is missing, the data missing is:
Her recipe calls for 3/4 of a pint of milk and she only has 5/8 of a pint of milk.
Now, to know what's the portion she can do with that amount we need to divide the amount of milk she has by the total amount she needs:
÷
When we divide we turn the second fraction upside down (the numerator becomes the denominator and viceversa) and multiply, thus:
÷
×
If we simplify this last expression we have:
Thus, she can only make 5/6 of her recipe with the amount of milk that she has.
<em>Note: In case the data missing is different, you can apply this same procedure with the fractions you have. </em>
Answer:
The volume of the box is 3/4 cubic meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that volume = length * width * height. We have length, width, and height already, so all we have to do is multiply.
5/6 * 1 1/8 * 4/5. First we convert 1 1/8 from a mixed fraction, to give us 9/8, as 8/8 = 1.
5/6 * 9/8 * 4/5. 5 * 9 = 45, and 6 * 8 = 48. 45/48 reduces to 15/16.
15/16 * 4/5. 15 * 4 = 60, and 16 * 5 = 80. 60/80 reduces to 6/8, which reduces to 3/4.
P-Q should be -11a^2+4b^2+ab
The total number of gallons of paint needed for the big room is 3x and the number of gallons of paint needed for the small room is 2y.
3x + 2y = 16
Given the sizes of the room, the relation should be that,
x = 2y
Solving the equation,
3(2y) + 2y = 16
y = 2
Therefore x is equal to 4 gallons.
With the condition that only the bigger room is painted, the number of gallons of paint used should be 12 gallons and what is left should be 4 gallons.
