So here we're dealing with equivalent fractions.
It's really simple to find the answer, so I'll try to explain the best I can.
2 dogs / 5 cats is really just 2/5.
If we want to find an equivalent fraction, we have to multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number.
Currently the number of cats is 5, and we need it to be 140. What we need to do is find the number it has to be multiplied by to equal 140, which is 140 divided by 5. 140 divided by 5 is 28, so 5 x 28 = 140!
We need to multiply the denominator (5) by 28, so that we can get 140. What we have now is ?/140.
Like I said, to find an equivalent fraction, we need to multiply the numerator by the same number as we did the denominator, which is 28!
2 x 28 = 56.
So 2/5 is the same as 56/140.
The answer is D) 56 Dogs/140 Cats.
Hope this helps!
If you're confused about anything leave me a reply and I'll try to explain the best that I can!
Answer:
Canadians typically use a mix of metric and imperial measurements in their daily lives. Although Canadian driver's licences give height in centimetres, many Canadians also use imperial units to indicate height and weight.
If it were like that, 9/20 would be baseball card.
x=27 since 20x3=60
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It's algebra really, basically make a system of equations.
1b+5j=t
3b+2j=2t
I'm gonna solve the first one for buckets so we have it in terms of jars.
b+5j=t
b=t-5j
Now I plug that into the other equation
3b+2j=2t
3(t-5j)+2j=2t
3t-15j+2j=2t
Now, since it wants how many jars are in one tub, I want to solve it so there's 1t on one side of the equation and all js on the other. or it other words solve for t.
3t-15j+2j=2t
3t-13j = 2t
3t = 2t+13j
t = 13j
So it takes 13 jars to make one tub, or one jar is 1/13 of a tub. You could then plug that in to one of the equations and find how much a bucket is.
