Answer:

The fraction of one pound of cheese to be used in each sandwich is 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have a question that requires the method of dealing with the division of fractions.

To divide a fraction by a whole number, we multiply the denominator of the fraction by the whole number as follows;

\frac{x}{y} \div z =\frac{x}{y\times z}

Quantity of cheese Shane has = 1/2 pound

Number of sandwiches to be made = 4

Amount of cheese per sandwich = 1/2÷4 = 1/8.

Find the volume of the composite figure. please!
Irina-Kira [14]
Volume= Length * width ( aka Base ) * height 

Break up the figure into easier figures, a small square and a bigger square.

Small square- 3*2*1 = 6 cm

Large Square- 7*6*1 = 42 cm

42 + 6 = 48 cm. But wait! You have to take one more step, which is minus-ing 6 from 48. Why? Notice that there is a little area where a side of the small square meets the bigger square. That little area is worth 3 cm ( length is 3, height is 1 cm ) times 2 ( 3 cm is one side, another 3 cm is the other side from the other square ) = 6 cm.

Your total answer should be 42. ( or 48, if your teacher doesn't count the area where the squares meet/join together ).
