If the number on top is bigger than the number on the bottom then it is more than one. if the number on the top is smaller then the number on the bottom then it is less than one. if the bottom and top number are the same then it is 1.

If the numerator is less than the denominator, then the fraction is less than 1.
E.g.: 3/4 < 1, because 3 < 4.

If the numerator is larger than the denominator, then the fraction is greater than 1.
E.g.: 5/4 > 1, because 5 > 4.

If the numerator is equal to the denominator, then the fraction is equal to 1.
E.g.: 9/9= 1, because 9=9.

Hope this helps~

a toy manufacturer has designed a new piece for use in building models. It is a cube with side lengths 7 mm and has a 3 mm in di

Ray Of Light [21]

Given that the cubical piece has side (s) 7 mm, and a cylindrical hole of diameter (d) as 3 mm.

The volume of the piece can be calculated as,

$\begin{gathered} \text{Volume of piece}=\text{ Volume of cube}-\text{ Volume of cylinder} \\ V=s^3-\frac{\pi}{4}d^2s \\ V=7^3-\frac{\pi}{4}(3)^2(7) \\ V=343-\frac{63\pi}{4} \\ V\approx293.52mm^3 \\ V\approx293.52\times10^{-9}\text{ }m^3 \end{gathered}$

It is mentioned that the material costs $207 per cubic meter, so the cost (c) of 1 piece is calculated as,

$\begin{gathered} \text{Cost of 1 piece}=\text{ Cost per unit volume}\times\text{ Volume of 1 piece} \\ c=207\times293.52\times10^{-9} \\ c\approx60758.64\times10^{-9} \end{gathered}$

This is the cost (in dollars) for 1 piece.

Given that the manufacturer wants to produce 1,000,000 such pieces, so the total cost (TC) is calculated as,

$\begin{gathered} \text{Total Cost}=\text{ Cost per piece}\times\text{ No. of pieces} \\ TC=60758.64\times10^{-9}\times1,000,000 \\ TC=60758.64\times10^{-9}\times10^6 \\ TC=60758.64\times10^{-3} \\ TC=60.75864 \\ TC\approx60.75 \end{gathered}$

Thus, the total prototypes will cost around $60.75

vovangra [49]

1 gallon=8 pints
so, 5 pints + 3 pints = 8 pints= 1 gallon
and, 6 gallons + 3 gallons= 9 gallons
Finally, 1 gal+9 gal= 10 gallons
Answer: 10 GALLONS

Get this right and you get brainliest

blagie [28]

Answer:

2 1/3 planes

Step-by-step explanation:

3.5 lego planes / 60 minutes

So fraction =

3.5/60

In 40 minutes he will build x planes

So the fraction equation is:

3.5/60 = x/40

Solve:

Cross multiply =

140 = 60x

x = 2 1/3

2 1/3 planes

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!

If you like my answer and explanation, mark me as brainliest!
