Mathematics
1 answer:

When dividing fractions, " flip " what u r dividing by, then multiply
Examples :
(2/3) / (4/5) = 2/3 * 5/4 = 10/12 reduces to 5/6

8 / (1/5) = 8 * 5/1 = 40

(1/3) / 7 = 1/3 * 1/7 = 1/21

just make sure u " flip " the number u r dividing by and not the other one

Answer:

She went on the slide 8 times and on the roller coaster 4 times

Step-by-step explanation:

We convert each statements to a mathematical equation.

Firstly, let's represent the number of times she went on the coaster with R and the number of times on the slide with S. We know quite well she went on 12 rides. Hence the summation of both number of times yield 12.

Mathematically, R + S = 12. ........(i)

Now we also know her total wait time was 3hours. Since an hour equals 60 minutes, her total wait time would equal 180 minutes.

To get a mathematical representation for the wait time, we multiply the number of roller coaster rides by 25 and that of the slides by 10.

Mathematically, 25R + 10S = 180 .......(ii)

Here we now have two equations that we can solve simultaneously.

From equation 1 we can say R = 12 - S. We can then substitute this into equation 2 to yield the following:

25(12 - s) + 10s = 180

300 - 25s + 10s = 180

300 - 25s + 10s = 180

300 - 15s = 180

15s = 300 - 180

15s = 120

S = 120/15

S = 8

S = 8 , and R = 12 - S = 12 - 8 = 4

qwelly [4]

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

difference between y = 12, x=72 is 6

so if y = 3 then multiply 3×6 = 18
