Answer:

x is equal to 27

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, start by making a proportion. In order to do so, you need to set it up using the smaller triangle on the right and the larger triangle on the left.

39/x = 65/(x + 18)

Now cross multiply to solve.

65*x = 39(x + 18)

65x = 39x + 702

26x = 702

x = 27

Mrs.Henderson had 7/12dozen eggs in her refrigerator.Then she used 1/6 dozen eggs to make a cake.What fraction of a dozen is lef

zhuklara [117]

Ok so to find the eggs left we need to subtract but with fractions, you need a common denominator. You can multiply 1/6 by 2 because 6·2=12 which will be the same denominator as 7/12. You must multiply the numerator by 2 as well so 1/6· 2/2= 2/12. Now subtract 7/12 - 2/12 and you have 5/12 eggs left. :)

How many 1/4 litre bottles can be filled from a jug containing 8 litres of water?

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

32 bottles

Step-by-step explanation:

In this scenario, we have to divide 8 by 1/4 to see how many of those 1/4-liter bottles can be filled with 8 liters of water. So, let's go ahead and see how this looks mathematically, then we'll start simplifying:

$\frac{8}{1}$ ÷ $\frac{1}{4}$

Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by that same fraction's reciprocal, so we can rearrange our math to make things easier.

$\frac{8}{1}$ × $\frac{4}{1}$

Now, we can multiply the numerators and the denominators.

$\frac{8}{1}$ × $\frac{4}{1}$ $= \frac{32}{1} =32$

So 32 of those 1/4 liter bottles can be filled from a jug containing 8 liters of water. Hopefully this was helpful! If anything was confusing or didn't make sense, let me know so I can make things clearer. :)
