Number of apples=12 times numer of bags=12n
neeeds at least 75 apples (1 per student)
12n≥75
divide both sides by 12
n≥6.25
can't buy 0.25 of a bag
7
needs to buy 7 bags
First, let's start off with the information we already have. Since the ratio is 4 boys to 5 girls, there has to be a minimum of 9 students (4 being boys and 5 being girls).
9 will be the denominator of both of our fractions since the boys and girls are in the same class.
The fraction of boys in the class is 4/9 (since there are 4 boys to 5 girls in a class of 9, we would write 4 over 9) and the fraction of girls in the class is 5/9.
This is a simplified version of the fractions. If this is a multiple-answer question and 4/9 and 5/9 are not up there, try multiplying the fractions with different numbers and see what fractions will be correct.
But either way, 4/9 and 5/9 are correct :)
The best way to measure a volume of this size in Liters. This is a metric unit. There are 1000 liters in one cubic meter.
Hey there!!
Let's take the length of the bigger piece as x inches
Then, the length of the smaller piece would be x - 8 inches
The sum of these lengths would be 54 inches
... x + x - 8 = 54
... 2x - 8 = 54
... Add 8 on both sides
... 2x = 62
... Divide 2 on both sides
... x = 31
Hence, the length of the bigger piece = 31 inches
The length of the smaller piece would be = 31 - 8 = 23 inches
Hope my answer helps!!
