1/5.
If 4 pieces of gum are each divided into 5 parts, that will mean there will be 20 smaller parts (5*4=20).
Each person will get one part of each piece of gum. If there are 4 pieces of gum originally, this means each person gets 4 small pieces of gum
If each person gets 4 small pieces of gum and there are 20 small pieces altogether, that makes the fraction 4/20
Since 4 and 20 are both divisible by 4, that makes the simplified answer 1/5.
Answer:
8.75n = 61.25
Step-by-step explanation:
We multiply n, number or hours, times how much he makes per hour.
Therefore, it is 8.75n = 61.25
Hope this helps :)

Answer:13.5% is greater than 0.13
Step-by-step explanation:
0.13 or 13.5% which is greater
13.5%=13.5/100=0.135
0.13 or 0.135 which is greater
0.135 is greater which means 13.5% is greater
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We are asked to find the length of the third side in a triangle, given the other 2 sides.
Since this is a right triangle (note the small square in the corner of the triangle representing a 90 degree /right angle), we can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

In this theorem, <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are the legs of the triangle and <em>c</em> is the hypotenuse.
We know that the unknown side (we can say it is a) and the side measuring 5 are the legs because they form the right angle. The side measuring 10 is the hypotenuse because it is opposite the right angle.
Substitute the values into the formula.

Solve the exponents.
- (5)²= 5*5 = 25
- (10)²= 10*10= 100

We are solving for a, so we must isolate the variable. 25 is being added to a. The inverse operation of addition is subtraction, so we subtract 25 from both sides.



a is being squared. The inverse of a square is the square root, so we take the square root of both sides.



Round to the nearest tenth. The 6 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 6 up to a 7 in the tenth place.

The length of the third side is approximately <u>8.7</u>
