Hi there!

Since all, or one whole of a book is equal to 1, we subtract:

1 - 4/7 = 3/7

So, Maria has 3/7 of her money left.

Hope this helps!

Hello!

Maria spent 4/7 and saved the rest, so you can subtract 7 and 4 to find out what fraction of her money she saved . . .

7 - 4 = 3 <-------

This means 3/7 of her money was saved.

3/7 is the fraction of money Maria saved.

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!

What is the value of x? −7.5(x−3)=3.75

Elena L [17]

${\boxed{ \Huge{ \blue{ \mathcal{{ Answer}}}}}}$

⇛-7.5(x−3) = 3.75

⇛-7.5x + 22.5 = 3.75

⇛-7.5x = 3.75 - 22.5

⇛-7.5x = -18.75

⇛x = -18.75 ÷ -7.5

⇛x = -18.75/-7.5

⇛x = 2.5

Are there any prime numbers that are also square numbers

cestrela7 [59]

The definition of a prime number is one in which there are no factors other than 1 and itself. For example, 5 has no other factors other than 1 and 5 (itself).

The number 1 is not considered prime nor composite.So, even though it is a square (1²), it is not a prime number.

All square numbers have a square root that is neither 1 nor itself: 16 is the square of 4, 49 the square of 7, and so on.

Due to the fact that square numbers have factors other than 1 and itself, square numbers are not prime.

Hope this helps! :)

The coffee cups can hold 7/9 of a pint of liquid. If Emily puts 2/3 of s pint of coffee into a cup, how much milk can a customer

Bezzdna [24]

1/9 pints of milk can be added by a customer

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to subtract simple fractions to find the amount of milk that can be added to a cup of coffee

Given

Total Capacity of a cup = 7/9 pints

Coffee to be added in a cup = 2/3 pints

So in order to find the amount of milk that can be added we have to subtract the amount of coffee from the total capacity of cup.

So,

$Amount\ of\ milk = \frac{7}{9} - \frac{2}{3}\\=\frac{7-6}{9} = \frac{1}{9}$

Hence,

1/9 pints of milk can be added by a customer
