Answer:

4.8 points

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we can use proportionality.

From the question above, uncle drew scored 28 points in  5 5/6 minutes, we are to find the number of points he got in 1 minute.

First we convert 5 5/6 from its mixed number to an improper fraction;

5 5/6 =  35  /   6

Let x = the number of point uncle drew scored in a minute

35/6  minutes   = 28 points

 1 minute           =     x

cross multiply

\frac{35}{6}   ×   x     =      28

\frac{35x}{6}   =   28

To get the value of x, we will have to multiply both-side of the equation by \frac{6}{35}

Hence;

\frac{6}{35}  ×  \frac{35x}{6}   =  28 ×  \frac{6}{35}

               x   =   28 × 6    /     35

              x   =\frac{168}{35}

             x  =  4.8 points

Therefore, uncle drew scored 4.8 points per minute

A bag contains green marbles and red marbles, 36 in total. The number of green marbles is 1 more than 4 times the number of red
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

29

Step-by-step explanation:

Total marble = 36

Let red marbles be X

Then green marble is 4X + 1

And 4X + 1 + X = 36

5X = 36 - 1

5X = 35

X = 35/5 = 7

So, green marbles = 4X + 1

= 4(7) + 1

= 29

write and solve a real- world problem involving the multiplication of a fraction and a whole number whose product is between 10
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Real word Problem:- Jean is working in a pizza shop. She has 60 kg of flour. She has used one-fifth of it for making pizzas. How much flour she used for making pizzas?

Solution:- Quantity of flour she has= 60 kg

The quantity she used in making pizzas=\frac{1}{5}\ of\ 60

=\frac{1}{5}\times60=12\ kg

hence, she used 12 kg of flour for making pizzas.

Here the multiplication of a fraction and a whole number =\frac{1}{5}\times60 and its answer is between 10 and 15, since 10<12<15.
