Answer:
fraction 1 and 3 over 5
Step-by-step explanation:
2:3 is equal to 8 blocks
5:12 is equal to 5 blocks
if you divide them, the result is:
8/5 which is the same as 1 3/5
because 5 is contained 1 time in 8 and the rest is 3
Answer:
3/2x-2>5 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Two less than a number means we are subtracting 2, so we can write it into the equation as -2.
Since we dont know the value of x, we can just write 3/2 of x by multiplying 3/2 by x. So 3/2x. Also, since we are subtracting two from 3/2x, -2 comes after 3/2x.
Now, since it says that it is more than 5 1/2, we could use the greater than sign (>), to express that. So >5 1/2
Our final expression is 3/2x-2>5 1/2.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
15 nuts do not get found.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Of a squirrel's hidden nuts, for every 5 that get found, there are 3 that do not get found.
Total number of nuts squirrel had hidden = 40
Proportion of nuts not found to total = 3/(3+5) = 3/8
Hence out of 40, nuts not found =3/8(40) = 15 nuts.
15 nuts would not be found and 25 nuts would be found if squirrel had hidden in total 40 nuts.
This is because the proportion of found:unfound = 5:3
Hence 25:!5 =5:3 satisfies this
15 nuts are not found.
