Answer:
3 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 * 1/5
First you would turn 1/5 into a reciprocal
Now your equation would be 3/4 *5/1
Now you multiply 3/4 * 5/1
15/4
Now find 15/4 as a mixed number
15/4 as a mixed number would be 3 3/4
Therefore there are 3 3/4 1/2 cup servings in a 3/4 cup of ice
Let the width be x.
Length is 8 feet more than width. Length = x + 8
Area = x(x + 8)
width increased by 4, that is, (x + 4)
Length decreased by 5, (x + 8 - 5) = (x + 3)
Area = (x + 4)(x +3)
Area remains the same
x(x + 8) = (x+4)(x +3)
x² + 8x = x(x +3) + 4(x +3)
x² + 8x = x² +3x + 4x +12
x² + 8x = x² +7x +12 Eliminate x² from both sides
8x = 7x + 12
8x - 7x = 12
x = 12
Dimensions of original rectangle : x, x + 8
12, 12 +8 = 12, 20
Original rectangle is 20 feet by 12 feet
