Answer:
Janice converted a mixed number to the wrong improper fraction.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 batch of stew uses 1 and 2/3 lb meat
Total amount of meat used - 10 and 5/6 lb
x = number of stew batches made
To get number of batches made, divide total meat used by the amount of meat each batch requires:
x = 10 5/6 ÷ 1 2/3
convert mixed fractions to improper fractions:
x = (10x6+5)/6 ÷ (1x3+2)/3
x = 65/6 ÷ 5/3
The fraction in bold numbers is where Janice got it wrong. She changed 1 2/3 to 5/2. (From the question: 10 and StartFraction 5 over 6 EndFraction divided by 1 and two-thirds = StartFraction 65 over 6 EndFraction divided by five halves). 1 2/3 converted to an improper fraction is 5/3. From this point going forward, the calculations are wrong.
After 4 months! You do 120-20=100 which indicates only the month prices, then 100 divided by 25 which is 4!

Answer:
The wood from the birch tree has a greater density than the wood that came from the cypress tree.
Step-by-step explanation:
Density formula: mass/volume
2 times 4 times 3=24 meters for the volume
Birch tree: 16/24 is the density
3 times 5 times 2=30 meters for the volume
Cypress tree: 15.3/30 is the density
If we convert the densities of each piece of wood to decimal it will be easier to determine which has a greater density.
So birch tree: 0.6 repeating is the density
Cypress tree: 0.51 is the density
Therefore the wood that came from the birch tree has a greater density than the wood that came from the cypress tree.
