How many 3/8’s are in 3

Mathematics

Greeley [361]3 years ago

Answer: 8 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Youre essentially doing 3 divided by 3/8.

3 is equivalent to 3/1. And when you divide fractions, you have to multiply by the reciprocal. the reciprocal of 3/8 is 8/3.

\frac{3}{1} *\frac{8}{3} = \frac{24}{3} = 8

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{3}{8}\:+\:\:\frac{3}{8}\:+\:\:\frac{3}{8}\:+\:\:\frac{3}{8}\:+\:\:\frac{3}{8}\:+\:\:\frac{3}{8}\:+\:\:\frac{3}{8}\:+\:\:\frac{3}{8}\:

\frac{3}{8} \times 8

=3

We can also use algebra.

\frac{3}{8} \times x=3

x=3 \div \frac{3}{8}

x=8

GIVING OUT BRAINLIEST!! All sacks of sugar have the same weight. All sacks of flour also have the same weight, but not necessari
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

flour = 11.5, sugar has to be equal to 2.75 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

your 2 inequalities are:

2x + 3y <= 40

y <= 2x + 6

the second equation can be shown as:

-2x + y <= 6

solve the equality portion of these 2 inequalities.

those are the following equations:

2x + 3y = 40

-2x + y = 6

add these equations together and solve for y to get

y = 11.5

that appears to be a break even point.

when y = 11.5, the first inequality is solved as follows:

2x + 3y <= 40

replace y with 11.5 and the inequality becomes:

2x + 34.5 <= 40

solve for x to get

x <= 2.75

when y = 11.5, the second inequality is solved as follows:

-2x + y <= 6

replace y with 11.5 and the inequality becomes:

-2x + 11.5 <= 6

solve for x to get x >= 2.75

this indicates that, when y = 11.5, x has to be equal to 2.75.

both constraints are satisfied.

A washer and dryer cost $793 combined, the washer costs $93 more than the dryer. What is the cost of the dryer?
frosja888 [35]
The dryer costs x.
The washer costs $93 more than the dryer, so it costs x+93.
The washer and the dryer cost $793 altogether.

x+x+93=793 \\&#10;2x=793-93 \\&#10;2x=700 \\&#10;x=\frac{700}{2} \\&#10;x=350

The cost of the dryer is $350.

If a histogram is right skewed, which will be greater the mean or the median? Type a single word answer in the space
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Mean is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

For a skewed distribution, then the tail is longer to one side from the center than to the other. In a right skewed distribution, the tail is longer to the right.

When a distribution is skewed, the mean will be closer to the tail Than the median. Therefore. For a right skewed histogram, the mean is closer to the tail of the histogram and hence closer to the right. Once this happens, values closer to the right of a distribution are higher (number line). Thus the mean will be greater than the median.

Jose works 25 hours a week at $12.50 per hour. How many weeks will he have to work to earn $3,437.50?
Sidana [21]
The answer is 11. You multiply 25 and 12.5 first. then once you find out how much money you get each week, you divide the 3437.5 by the number you got, which is 312.5. Divide 3437.5 by 312.5
