Answer: 51/8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you must cut down the length of copper tubbing from 15 1/8 inches to 8 3/4 inches, the leftover piece will be:

15 1/8 - 8 3/4

Change the mixed fraction to improper fraction.

121/8 - 35/4

The LCM will be 8

( 121 - 70 )/8

51/8 or 6.375 inches

Therefore, the leftover piece will be 51/8 inches long

The number of patients treated at Dr. McCormick’s dentist office each day was recorded for nine days. These are the data: 13, 16
NARA [144]
First, lets sort the list from smallest to greatest. This will help with median, mode, and range.

4, 6, 10, 12, 12, 13, 16, 16, 16

Next, lets find the mean. Mean is found by adding all numbers up, then dividing them by the number of entries in the data set.

4+6+10+12+12+13+16+16+16 = 105
105 / 9 = 11.7

So the mean is 11.7.

Next, we'll find the median. The median is the value in the center of the list. Because there are 9 values, that means the center of the list is 5 with four numbers on each side of it. The 5th number in the list is 12, so that's our median.

Continuing, the mode is the number or numbers that appears the most often. For this data set, 16 appears 3 times while all other numbers appear 2 times or less. So, the mode is 16.

Lastly, the range is the difference between the largest number and the smallest number.

16 - 4 = 12

So the range is 12.

The second answer in the list matches all of these values, and is the correct solution.

Hello Help Plis…………..
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

7. 20 + 5 + 3/10 + 6/100

8. 7 + 4/10 + 2/100 + 5/1000

Step-by-step explanation:

We are writing two numbers in expanded form, to help, we can use the guide above both numbers. Expanded form is all about breaking apart a number by place value and putting them in an additional sequence.

Let's look at 7, 25.36.

There are the tens, ones, tenths, and hundredths place being used, therefore :

20 + 5 + 3/10 + 6/100

We can do the same for 8, 7.425.

There are ones, tenths, hundredths, and thousandths being used, therefore :

7 + 4/10 + 2/100 + 5/1000
