Answer:

(12/5)m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

It's easier for most of us to write out a fraction / ratio without the " / " symbol:

48m^7

------------

20 m^4

Separate the coefficients from the powers of m:

48 m^7

----- * -------- Now let's reduce each fraction separately:

20 m^4

48/20 = 12/5, and

(m^7) / (m^4) = m^(7-4) = m^3

... so that our final answer is (12/5)m^3.

Seamstress Jane has purchased 50 yards of red fabric and 110 yards of gold fabric to make red and gold curtains. What is the lar

Alisiya [41]

Answer: There are 10 largest number of curtains she can make if she wants all the curtains to be exactly the same length.

There are 5 red fabrics and 11 gold fabrics that would be used for each curtain.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of yards of red fabric purchased by Jane = 50

Number of yards of gold fabric purchased by Jane = 110

We need to find the largest number of curtains she can make if she wants all the curtains to be exactly the same length.

For this we will find H.C.F. of 50 and 110.

Factors of 50 = 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50.

Factors of 110 = 1, 2, 5, 10, 11, 22, 55, 110.

So, Highest common factor of 50 and 110 is 10.

So, there are 10 largest number of curtains she can make if she wants all the curtains to be exactly the same length.

Number of yards of red fabric is given by

$\frac{50}{10}=5$

Number of yards of gold fabric is given by

$\frac{110}{10}=11$

Hence, there are 5 red fabrics and 11 gold fabrics that would be used for each curtain.

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

100g : 60g : 80g

Step-by-step explanation:

5+3+4 =12 total parts

(5/12 of 240)

5/12 x 240 = 100g

3/12 x 240 = 60g

4/12 x 240 = 80g

Check:

100g + 60g + 80g = 240g

Hope this helps!
