5+ x/11
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2/15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that she have already read one-third of the book.
The fraction f of the book that will remain is;
f = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3
Then she finishes the book by reading the same amount each night for 5 nights
That implies she reads the remaining 2/3 of the book at equal rates for 5 nights.
Let x represent the fraction rate read per night;
5x = 2/3
Divide both sides by 5
x = 2/3 × 1/5
x = 2/15
Therefore, she reads 2/15 of the book every night for 5 nights.
Answer:
x ÷ 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Concepts:</u>
- An expression a mathematical sentence that has at least two numbers and a minimum of one math operation (addition, subtraction, etc.) in it. An expression cannot have an = sign in it.
- A variable is an unknown, numerical value in an equation, often represented by the letter x.
<u>Solving:</u>
Let's translate the first part of the expression:
1. "A number"
- Since we're unaware of the number in this expression, we can mark it as a variable, x.
- This means that, so far for our expression, we only have the variable, "x".
2. "divided by 1/4"
- When we're dividing, we use the ÷ symbol to represent that operation.
- Now, let's put the first part of our expression with the second one: "x ÷ 1/4"
Therefore, the expression for this situation is x ÷ 1/4.
You use a compass to draw an arc (or a full circle). The radius must be kept the same so that you can copy the length of the segment properly. If the compass could move freely, then it is unlikely the arc will be a piece of a circle, and rather some squiggly curve. So this is why the compass width must be locked into place.
Let n is the number of marbles.
when marbles are equally shared among 6, 7 or 8 students, each time 4 marbles left over.
To find the least number of marbles, first we find out what is the smallest number that can be divided to 6, 7 and 8.
Now you see that 6 and 8 are divisible by 2 but 7 is non- divisible.
if we take LCM of 6, 7 and 8 and find the smallest number.
2 I6,7,8
-------
3,7,4
Now multiply 2,3,7 and 4
2 x 3 x7 x 4 = 168
each time 4 marbles left so
least possible number of marbles in the box = 168 + 4 = 172
