Answer:
3 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
_____ + 5 3/4 = 9 5/8
x + 5 3/4 = 9 5/8
Subtract 5 3/4 from each side
x + 5 3/4 - 5 3/4 = 9 5/8 - 5 3/4
x = 9 5/8 - 5 3/4
Get a common denominator of 8
5 3/4 *2/2 = 5 6/8
x = 9 5/8 - 5 6/8
We need to borrow 1 from the 9 in the form of 8/8
x= 8 + 8/8+ 5/8 - 5 6/8
x = 8 13/8 - 5 6/8
= 3 7/8
600 feet of tape because 4 +4 for two sides of the window is 8 and 3+ 3 is 6, 14 plus the foot of overlap is 15 x 40 is 600.
Look at some shorter periods of time to decide whether their reasonable. Do that by simplifying the fraction. . . . . 40,000 pounds / 80 years = 4,000 pounds / 8 years = 2,000 pounds (1 ton) / 4 years = 1,000 pounds / 2 years (have you decided yet ? Well, simplify it some more) 1,000 pounds / 2 years = 500 pounds per year = almost 1 and 1/2 pounds of bread every day of your life. NOW what do you think ? Make sense ?
It would be: 0.38 / 0.25
Cancel both the decimals,
= 38/25
Now, it becomes too easy can be simplified by division
= 38/25 = 1.52
In short, Your Answer would be 1.52
Hope this helps!
