Answer:
You put it over a one to represent seven whole numbers or just 7
Answer: 70% or .7
Step-by-step explanation: there are 10 people total who have a brother and 7 of those people have a sister so 7/10=.7
We know that the 15% of missing pencils is equal to 9
we can use this formula
9/x = 15/100
Then cross multiply
15x = 900
x = 60
There were orignally 60 pencils
3/4 × 2 2/5
Turn 2 2/5 into an improper fraction.
2 2/5 = (5 × 2) + 2 = 12
So, 2 2/5 = 12/5
So, our new question is : 3/4 × 12/5
Multiply the numerators (top numbers) with one another.
Numerators : (3 × 12) = 36
Multiply the denominators (bottom numbers) with one another.
Denominators : (4 × 5) = 20
So, our answer is 36/20
However, we need this to be a mixed number.
So, how many times does 20 go into 36? Once!
So, Multiply 20 with 1, and then subtract that number from 36! :)
20 × 1 = 20
36 - 20 = 16
So, our answer is :
1 16/20
Then, you simplify it once more.
Divide the numerator and denominator by 4.
16 ÷ 4 = 4
20 ÷ 4 = 5
So, our final answer is 1 4/5
