Given that the size of the buttons are:
1/8 inch, 3/8 inch and 1/4 inch
To compare the lengths we first convert the fractions into decimals for easy comparison.
To convert fractions into decimals we divide the numerator by the denominator:
1/8=0.125
3/8=0.375
1/3=0.25
from the above decimals we can see that 0.125 is the smallest and hence we conclude that the smallest button is 1/8 inches. The largest button is 3/8 inches.
.25(4) = 1 gallon
.25(8) = 2 gallons
.25(12) = 3 gallons
.25(16) = 4 gallons
.25(20) = 5 gallons
it would take 20 minutes to remove half the water (aka 5 gallons)
Answer:
the answer is 6,-6
Step-by-step explanation:
the square root of 36
Let us assume number of points scored by Team B = b points.
Number of points scored by Team A 5 fewer than twice as many points as Team B, that is "5 less than 2b" = (2b-5) points .
Team C scored 80 more points than Team B, that is " 80 more than b" = (b+80) points.
Total number of points scored by all teams = 983 points.
Therefore, we can setup an equation:
<h3>(2b-5) + b + (b+80) = 983.</h3>
Therefore, an equation to represent this scenario using the variable b to represent Team B’s total points is (2b-5) + b + (b+80) = 983.
