I would first convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction. To put it lightly, the reciprocal is the numerator and denominator are switched. For this instance it would be 4/37.
Answer:
42 strawberries are in each basket. 4 strawberries are left over.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how many she put into each basket, you need to divide 256/6. Your answer should 42.6666667. Round down to 42.
To find out how many are left over, multiply 42 x 6. You need to do this to figure out how many strawberries total she used trying to put them evenly into the baskets. Your answer should be 252. Then, you subtract 256 - 252. You do this to find out how many are left over. Your answer is 4.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
•y-intercept is the 200 pages she has to read to begin with
•x-intercept on day 16 means she has finished reading all the pages, there are
zero pages left
•there are 100 pages left after 8 days
• the line is straight (no change in slope) so the reading rate was consistent over the 16 days.
$20-$14.56=$5.44
The mechanic would get $5.44 back as change.
Step-by-step explanation:
Claim: There's 14 Goats and 9 Chickens!!
Data:
Working with the Provided Information.
Let the Number of goats be x
let the Number of Chickens be y
x + y = 23..... (i)
Since the goat Possesses Two Pair of Legs... Which is a Total of 4 Legs... We say Let its Contribution be 4x.
The Chicken has Only a Pair Of Legs...Which is a total of 2 legs.... We say let its contribution be 2y
4x + 2y = 74 .....(ii)
BRINGING BOTH EQUATIONS TOGETHER.
x + y = 23
4x + 2y = 74
From Eqn i
x= 23 - y
Substitute into eqn ii
4(23 - y ) + 2y = 74
92 - 4y + 2y = 74
92 - 2y = 74
2y = 92 - 74
2y = 18
y= 9.
Substitute y into any of the eqns to get x
x + y = 23
x + 9=23
x = 23 - 9
x = 14
This simply proves that there are 14 Goats and 9 Chickens!!!.
HAVE A GREAT DAY!
