Divide 3/4 by 1/8 and you should get 6 hurdles.
Answer:
8 red marbles.
Step-by-step explanation:
All together we have 40 marbles. The fraction of marbles that are red is 1/5 which means that we should divide the total number of marbles, which is 40 by the denominator ( Bottom number of fraction ) 5 so that we get the number of groups that have 1 red marble in them. In this case we have 8 groups.
40/5=8
You always divide by the denominator ( Bottom number of fraction ) first and then you multiply your answer by the numerator ( Top number of fraction ) .
If each group has 1 red marble in it and we have 8 groups, it means that we have 8 red marbles in the bag.
1 * 8 = 8 red marbles in the bag
If the numerator (number above the fraction line) was more than one, then this would mean that we have more than 1 marble in each group of marbles.
Example:
If we had 3/5 we would have 3 marbles in each group of marbles. This means that instead of doing 1 * 8 we would have to do 3 * 8 = 24. We would have 24 red marbles in the bag.
Easy and quick way if you do not need the explanation:
Another way we could do this is by simply multiplying the fraction ( 1/5 ) by the total number of marbles ( 40 ). This would still give us an answer of 8 red marbles in the bag. 40/5=8, 8*1=8
Answer:
300
Step-by-step explanation:
300*0.03=9
Answer:
45Y + 13Y equals 58Y is the answer
So what they are saying is the sum of 2x +13=75
Therefore we can just solve for 2x, our unknown value.
2x+13=75 now subtract 13 and divide by 2 from both sides of equation to not change the equation
x+13-13=75-13
This leaves us with
x=(75-13)/2=31 therefore x=31 or our unknown value is 31.
I hope this helped. Any questions please just ask. Thank you.
