HELP!!!

olga55 [171]

Answer:

a) 236/100 = 2.36

b) 101/100 = 1.01

c) 814/100 = 8.14

Step-by-step explanation:

The divisor in each case is already a factor of 100, so multiply the numerator and denominator by the number that will make the denominator 100. Then add 100 times the integer to the numerator of the fraction.

a) 2 9/25 = (200 +9·4)/(25·4) = 236/100 = 2.36

b) 1 1/100 = (100 +1)/100 = 101/100 = 1.01

c) 8 7/50 = (800 +7·2)/(50·2) = 814/100 = 8.14

____

Since each of these fractions has a denominator of 100, the decimal can be written by putting the least significant digit of the numerator in the hundredths place of the decimal number.

For example, for 236/100, putting 6 in the hundredths place puts 3 in the tenths place and 2 in the units place for a decimal number of 2.36.

In 4 minutes, a conveyor belt moves 800 pounds of recyclable aluminum from the delivery truck to a storage area. A smaller belt

kkurt [141]

Answer:

It takes 2 minutes 4 seconds to move the cans to storage area if both the belts are used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - In 4 minutes, a conveyor belt moves 800 pounds of recyclable

aluminum from the delivery truck to a storage area. A smaller belt

moves the same quantity of cans the same distance in 6 minutes.

To find - If both belts are used, find how long it takes to move the cans

to the storage area.

Proof -

Given that,

Larger belt take 4 minutes to transfer the aluminium from delivery truck to storage area.

⇒ Time taken by Larger belt = 4 min/ shifting

Also,

Smaller belt take 6 minutes to transfer the aluminium from delivery truck to storage area.

⇒ Time taken by Smaller belt = 6 min/ shifting

Now,

As we know that Time is inversely proportional to time, so

Rate of Larger Belt = $\frac{1}{4}$ shifting/min

Rate of Smaller Belt = $\frac{1}{6}$ shifting/min

Now,

Let us assume that , if both belts used then,

Total time taken = x min/shifting

Then, Rate = $\frac{1}{x}$ shifting/min

Now,

$\frac{1}{4}$ + $\frac{1}{6}$ = $\frac{1}{x}$

⇒ $\frac{6 + 4}{24} = \frac{1}{x}$

⇒ $\frac{10}{24} = \frac{1}{x}$

⇒10x = 24

⇒x = $\frac{24}{10}$ = 2.4 minutes

∴ we get

It takes 2 minutes 4 seconds to move the cans to storage area if both the belts are used.
