Answer:

Equation = X*(2/3) = 3/20

Solve for X = 0.23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the number be "X"

According to the question,

X*(2/3) = 3/20..........(i)

From equation (i), we can get,

X = (3/20)/(2/3)

or, X = 0.15/0.66

or, X = 0.23

Alternative way,

Let, the number be "X"

According to the question,

X*(2/3) = 3/20..........(i)

From equation (i), we can get,

X = (3/20)/(2/3)

or, X = (3/20)*(3/2)

or, X = 9/40

or, X = 0.23

Verify a(b-c)=ab-ac for a=1.6;b=1/-2;& c=-5/-7

harina [27]

Given:

$a=1.6,b=\dfrac{1}{-2},c=\dfrac{-5}{-7}$

To verify:

$a(b-c)=ab-ac$ for the given values.

Solution:

We have,

$a=1.6,b=\dfrac{1}{-2},c=\dfrac{-5}{-7}$

We need to verify $a(b-c)=ab-ac$ .

Taking left hand side, we get

$a(b-c)=1.6\left(\dfrac{1}{-2}-\dfrac{-5}{-7}\right)$

$a(b-c)=1.6\left(-\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{5}{7}\right)$

Taking LCM, we get

$a(b-c)=1.6\left(\dfrac{-7-10}{14}\right)$

$a(b-c)=\dfrac{16}{10}\left(\dfrac{-17}{14}\right)$

$a(b-c)=\dfrac{8}{5}\left(\dfrac{-17}{14}\right)$

$a(b-c)=-\dfrac{68}{35}\right)$

Taking right hand side, we get

$ab-ac=1.6\times \dfrac{1}{-2}-1.6\times \dfrac{-5}{-7}$

$ab-ac=-\dfrac{16}{20}-\dfrac{8}{7}$

$ab-ac=-\dfrac{4}{5}-\dfrac{8}{7}$

Taking LCM, we get

$ab-ac=\dfrac{-28-40}{35}$

$ab-ac=\dfrac{-68}{35}$

Now,

$LHS=RHS$

Hence proved.

Jenny has 12 bottles of iced tea in her cooler. If there are 6 liters of iced tea in all, how many milliliters does each bottle

lesya692 [45]

Answer: Each bottle contains 500 milliliters of iced tea

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to divide the total liters of iced tea (6) by the number of bottles (6).

Mathematically speaking

6 /12 = 0.5 liters

So, each bottle contains 0.5 liters of iced tea.

Since 1 liter = 1000 milliliters, weave to multiply the result by 1000 to convert to milliliters.

0.5 liters x 1000 milliliters = 500mililiters

Each bottle contains 500 milliliters of iced tea
