Tricky but not crazy hard. You could use th x/y method where you turn it into a cross multiplication fiasco.
or you can try your guesses through what ever equals 1/2 when you add one to the denominator. the answer you are looking for is 2/3
2/3 + 1 for the numerator = 1.
2/3 + 1 for the denominator = 1/2.
1,000= 3x+x. 1,000=4x. 250=x. 1,000= 3(250) +250. 1,000=750+250. The bench costs $250.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Descriptive statistics describe an event that happens over time. So bowler striking on 1/5 of his throws that night would be an example of descriptive statistics.
You want to know the factor by which 3 2/3 is multiplied to get 7 1/3.
1. You can estimate that it is 2 from 7/3 ≈ 2, then check by multiplication to see if that is right.
.. 2*(3 2/3) = 6 4/3 = 7 1/3 . . . . 2 is the correct factor.
2. You can divide 7 1/3 by 3 2/3 to see what the factor is.
.. (7 1/3)/(3 2/3) = (22/3)/(11/3) = 22/11 = 2 . . . . 2 is the factor Earl used.
3. You could see how many times you can subtract 3 2/3 from 7 1/3.
.. 7 1/3 -3 2/3 = (7 -3) +(1/3 -2/3) = 4 -1/3 = 3 2/3 . . . . . subtracting once gives 3 2/3
.. 3 2/3 -3 2/3 = 0 . . . . . . subtracting twice gives 0, so the factor is 2.
4. You could add 3 2/3 to see how many times it takes to get 7 1/3.
.. 3 2/3 +3 2/3 = (3 +3) +(2/3 +2/3) = 6 +4/3 = 7 1/3
We only need to add two values of 3 2/3 to get 7 1/3, so the factor is 2.
