Take 8 and divide it by 3 1/3. to make it easer 1/3 could be .3 as a decimal.
so 8 divided by 3.3.
8/3.3= 2.42
so it would be 2.42 tons of sugar per container.
Hello person above
How are you?
The answer to this question would be 0.14.
Hope this helps!
Comment if you have any questions!!!
So the eastbound train travels at 90 miles per hour in the complete opposite direction to the westbound equivalent, which travels at 80 miles per hour. Therefore, per hour, they get 170 miles away from each other. Since we are working out how long it would take for them to be 204 miles apart:
204 / 170 = 1.2 Hours, or 1 hour and 12 minutes.
Hope I helped!
2 x
----- = ------
3 15
cross multiply
(3)(x) = (15)(2)
3x = 30
x = 30/3
x = 10
so 2/3 = 10/15.......notice how these are equivalent fractions....that is because proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions
