when coloring in a grid to show a fraction, what does 3/10 look like when the grid represents a whole

Mathematics
1 answer:
Katarina [22]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

3 of 10 grid squares making up the whole will be colored.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/10 is one of ten equal parts. 3/10 is three of those ten equal parts. Essentially, the fraction 3/10 means "three out of ten".

_____

If the whole is divided into more than 10 parts, 3/10 will be 3 out of every 10. So if there are 20 parts, for example (2 tens), the 3/10 will be 6 of those parts (3 of each of the two tens).

At a concert 2/5 of the people were men, there were 3 times as many women as children. If there were 45 more men than children,
Bogdan [553]

This involves creating some equations.

First, these are what the letters I used stand for:

c = children

w = women

m = men

x = total population

Then, we must make an equation for each statement.

2/5x = m (2/5 of the people are men)

3c = w (there are 3 times as many women than children)

45+c = m (there are 45 more men than children)

Now, let's start plugging in our numbers:

x = all the men, women, and children

2/5(m+w+c) = m

2/5 (45+c +3c + c) = m     [Now simplify]

2/5 (45 + 5x) = m       [Now Distribute]

2/5(45) + (2/5)(5x) = m

2c + 18 = m    [Above we stated that there were the same amount as men as c +45]

2c + 18 = 45 +c     [Now set equal to c]

2c (-c) +18 = 45 +c (-c)

c+18 (-18) = 45 (-18)

c = 27

Now that we know that there was 27 children, we can plug 27 in for c in the other equations.

MEN = 27 + 45

WOMEN = 3(27)

CHILDREN = 27

Now add those three answers to find your total!

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Coordinates (x, y)
  • Terms/Coefficients
  • Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>

y = 4x - 18

y = -5x + 9

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

<em>Substitution</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>y</em> [2nd Equation]:                                                                           4x - 18 = -5x + 9
  2. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 5x on both sides:                                   9x - 18 = 9
  3. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 18 on both sides:                                   9x = 27
  4. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 9 on both sides:                                  x = 3

<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em> [1st Equation]:                                                                           y = 4(3) - 18
  2. Multiply:                                                                                                             y = 12 - 18
  3. Subtract:                                                                                                            y = -6

Answer:

0.0078125

Step-by-step explanation:

If the probability of flipping a fair coin (mentally) correctly for 1 row is 0.5, then the probability of flipping it correctly for 2 rows is

0.5 * 0.5 = 0.25

for 3 rows: 0.5*0.5*0.5 = 0.125

...

For 7 rows:

0.5*0.5*0.5*0.5*0.5*0.5*0.5 = 0.5^7 = 0.0078125
