The first column is the ratio you start with. The next column in the table should be the reduced fraction. To properly reduce a fraction, you divide the same number on the top and bottom of the fraction. Melody instead subtracted 1 in the top and bottom of the fraction to reduce it. She should have divided the top and bottom by 2 to get the second column of 1 pound of turkey and 3 people served.
The final column is designed to be the answer to the initial question of how many people are fed by 15 pounds of ground turkey. Starting with column 2 (the reduced ratio of 1/3), multiply the top by 15 to get 15 pounds of ground turkey. Then do the same to the bottom of the fraction. 3 x 15 = 45 people fed.
So the table should have been
Pounds of turkey 2 1 15
People served 1 3 45
Melody's overriding error was in believing that adding or subtracting numbers to both the top and bottom of a ratio/fraction keep its value the same. Instead, only multiplying or dividing the top and bottom by the same number creates an equivalent fraction.
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
i^12
We use the rule of 4
Take the exponent and divide by 4
12/4 = 3 r0
Then look at the remainder, That is the power we use
i^0 =1
i^1 =i
i^2 = -1
I^3 = -i
It repeats
i^0 =1
the youngest of them is 42

Answer: The probability is 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The odds of rolling a 1,2, or 3 on the first roll is 3/6 or 1/2.
The odds of rolling a 4,5, or 6 on the second roll is also 3/6 or 1/2
The odds all together is 1/4 because 1/2 divided by 1/2 is 1/4.
