Answer:

Yes, one box of parties is enough for everyone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cereal contained by one box = 12 cups,

Also, each young child needs cereal = \frac{1}{3} cup,

So, the cups needed for 11 younger child = \frac{11}{3} cups

Also, each older child needs cereal = \frac{3}{4} cup,

So, the cups needed for 10 older children = \frac{30}{4} cups,

Thus, the total cups needed = \frac{11}{3}+\frac{30}{4}

=\frac{44+90}{12}

=\frac{134}{12}

=11\frac{1}{6}

\because 11\frac{1}{6} < 12

Hence, one box of parties is enough for everyone.

We have 11 younger children, and we need 1/3 cups for each. So we need 11/3 cups for the younger children. We have 10 older children, and we need 3/4 cups for each. So we need 30/4 cups for the older children. 30/4+11/3 is the total number. But now we have to find a common denominator. Our common denominator in this instance is 12, so we just apply that. 90/12+44/12. 90+44=134/12=11.166667. So the answer is yes, one box is enough. Hope this helps!

You have to fill in the blank for this one 4/9 divided by blank equals 12
photoshop1234 [79]

For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.

We have then:

x: unknown number

We now write the expression that models the problem:

\frac{\frac{4}{9}}{x} = 12

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:

\frac{4}{9}=12x

\frac{4}{9(12)}=x

x=\frac{4}{108}

x=\frac{1}{27}

Answer:

4/9 divided by 1/27 equals 12
