Answer:

Multiply 1/4 ; dividing 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that in each number going from left to right, it decreases by dividing 4 each time (or multiplying 1/4)

8/4 = 2 ; 2/4 = 1/2 ; (1/2)/(4) = 1/8 ; etc.

(8)(1/4) = 2 ; (2)(1/4) = 1/2 ; etc.

A farmer market has 7/9 bushel of plums when it opens in the morning.By noon ,1/3of the plums are left .How many ,plums in bushe
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

farmers market sold 4/9 plums in bushel

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that at the beginning of the day we have 7/9 of a bushel of plums and that after a while there are 1/3 of a bushel of plums, so to calculate how many were sold we have to subtract the bushel of plums that were left from the initial ones

7/9 - 1/3

if we want to do this subtraction we have to find a fraction equivalent to 1/3 that can be subtracted from 7/9

1/3 = (1 * 3) / (3 * 3) = 3/9

now we are just the top and leave the denominator the same as before

7/9 - 3/9 = 4/9

Soooo Hard<br> Please someone help me
Alisiya [41]

\frac{1}{2} ( \frac{2}{3}  +  \frac{3}{4}) \\  =  \frac{1}{2}  ( \frac{2 \times 4}{3 \times 4}  +  \frac{3 \times 3}{4 \times 3} ) \\  =  \frac{1}{2} ( \frac{8}{12}  +  \frac{9}{12} ) \\  =  \frac{1}{2} ( \frac{8 + 9}{12} ) \\   = \frac{1}{2} ( \frac{17}{12} ) \\  =  \frac{1 \times 17}{2 \times 12}  \\  =  \frac{17}{24}
