Answer:

7/4 yard

Step-by-step explanation:

36 is a suitable common denominator for expressing these fractions. All measures are in yards.

2/3 + 4/9 + 23/36 = (12·2)/(12·3) + (4·4)/(4·9) + 23/36

= 24/36 + 16/36 + 23/36

= 63/36 = (9·7)/(9·4)

= 7/4 = 1 3/4 . . . . . yards

yawa3891 [41]

Explanation:

Each box contains

$\begin{gathered} 6plain \\ 4blueberry \\ 2onionbagels \end{gathered}$

The ratio that compares the number of blueberry bagels in one box to the number of onion bagels in one box will be calculated below as

$\begin{gathered} 4:2 \\ in\text{ the simplest form } \\ 2:1 \end{gathered}$

This means that for every one onionbagels in the box, there are 2 blueberry bagels

Part B:

Given that there are 20 blueberry bagels, the number if onion bagels will be calculated below as

$\begin{gathered} \frac{2}{1}=\frac{20}{x} \\ cross\text{ multiply, we will have} \\ 2x=20 \\ \frac{2x}{2}=\frac{20}{2} \\ x=10 \end{gathered}$

Hence,

The final answer is

$10\text{ }onion\text{ }bagels$
