You may need to sit down with your parents or with your teacher and
go over how to add and subtract fractions.

1).  "Perimeter" means the distance all the way around the square.
With a square, all 4 sides are the same length.  With <u>this</u> square,
every side is 1-1/4 inches long.

Perimeter = length of all 4 sides= (1-1/4) + (1-1/4) + (1-1/4) + (1-1/4) =

                                               (1 + 1 + 1 + 1) + (1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4) =

                                                         4           +             4/4  =  <em>5 inches</em> .

2).  (2-3/8) + (1-7/8) = (2 + 1) + (3/8 + 7/8) =

                                        (3)   +    (10/8) =

                                         3    +      1-1/4 =        <em>4-1/4 .</em>

3).  The difference is  (1-1/6) minus (5/6) .

Before you start to do the subtraction, write the (1-1/6)  as  (7/6) .

Then the subtraction is    (7/6) - (5/6)  =  2/6  =  <em>1/3</em> .

4).  This one is almost the same kind of problem as #3. 
It's another subtraction.

If you need (2-1/4) all together, and you already have (1-3/8),
then the amount you still have to find, or borrow, or buy, is the
difference between those two numbers.

           (2-1/4) minus (1-3/8) .

The trick is to write the (2-1/4) in some form that you'll be able to
subtract (1-3/8) from it.  When I learned how to do that, it was called
'borrowing', but I think now it's called 'regrouping'.

We need to work on (2-1/4):

-- take 1 from the 2, and change it into fourths.
 
                 2-1/4  =  1 and 4/4 and 1/4  =  1 and 5/4

-- Now, take those 5/4, and turn them into eighths.                
   Each fourth makes 2 eighths.  So  5/4  =  10/8.

Now, the (2-1/4) has turned into  1-10/8 .
We did NOT change the value.  It's still the same amount
as 2-1/4 , but it's just written in a different way.
And now the subtraction is easy:

         (2-1/4) minus (1-3/8)  = 

       (1-10/8) minus (1-3/8)  =  (zero and 7/8).

You need  <em>7/8 inch</em>  more string than you already have.

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Selling price of hockey game set is $145.32 , markup price is $210.54 and profit is $96 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the selling price of hockey game set be x .

As given

Pyotr Tchaikovsky Sporting Goods operates on a 45% overhead based on the selling price, which results in an overhead of $65.34 on the newest version of an air hockey game set.

45% is written in the decimal form .

= \frac{45}{100}

= 0.45

Thus the equation becomes  

0.45 × x = 65.34

0.45x = 65.34

x = \frac{65.34}{0.45}

x = 145.2

Therefore the selling price of the hockey game set is $145.2 .

Thus

Markup price = Selling price + Overhead Price

                      = $145.2 + $65.34

                      = $ 210.54

As given

If the air hockey game set costs Pyotr Tchaikovsky Sports $49.32 .

i.e Cost price of the  hockey game set = $ 49.32

Profit = Selling price -  Cost price

         = 145.32 - 49.32

         = $ 96

Therefore selling price of hockey game set is $145.32 , markup price is $210.54 and profit is $96 .

Answer:

The first term has 12 boxes shaded. Each term after that adds 4 more boxes.

To get from figure 1 to figure 35, you have to add four 34 times.

So Figure 35 will have 12 + (34)(4) = 148 boxes.
