Answer:

The answer to your question is 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Total volume = 1 gallon

Water drank by the hiker = 1/2

Water drank by each of his friends = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the water that he gave to his friends

Water gave to his friends = 1 - 1/2

                                          = 1/2

2.- Calculate the amount of water each friend received.

            1/2 ÷ 4 = 1/8

3.- Conclusion

Each of the friends received 1/8 of the gallon.

Lexie is making a scale drawing of a soccer field that is 120 yards long and 80 yards wide. If the field in Lexie’s drawing is 3
timurjin [86]

Answer:

  • <em><u>The field in Lexie's drawing should be 20 cm long.</u></em>

Explanation:

Making a scale drawing requires that the figure be similar, which implies that the sides of the figures be proportional.

The proportion for a drawing 30 cm wide and unknown length with the soccer field that is 120 yards long and 80 yards wide is:

  • length of the drawing / width of the drawing = length of the field / width of the field

Thus, using x for the unknown width of the drawing:

  • 30 cm / x = 120 yard / 80 yard

Thus, you must solve for x:

  • 30 cm × 80 yard = 120 yard × x

  • x = 30 cm × 80 yard / 120 yard = 20 cm.

Hence, the field in Lexie's drawing should be 20 cm long.
