So it took him 4/5 of an hour to paint 1/3
that means there is still 2/3 to go
so that means that he will have two times that time to paint the rest of the room
<u>4/5</u> = <u> ? </u>
1/3 2/3
using cross multiplication
(4/5)(2/3) = (1/3) (?)
8/15 = 1/3 ?
divide both sides by 1/3
so that will be 8/5
that means it will take 8/5 of an hour to complete the rest
or 12/5 total to do entire room
Hope this helps ;)

Answer: Choice A</h3>
0.10d + 0.05n = 2.25
d = 2n
================================================
Explanation:
n = number of nickels
d = number of dimes
we have twice as many dimes as nickels, so we could have something like 18 dimes and 9 nickels. Algebraically we would write d = 18 and n = 9. The equation that fits this is d = 2n. The answer is between A and B at this point.
We rule out choice B since the 0.05d is incorrect. It should be 0.10d to represent the total value of all the dimes.
Choice A is correct
d = number of dimes
0.10d = value of all the dimes in dollars
n = number of nickels
0.05n = value of all the nickels in dollars
0.10d + 0.05n = total value from both coins combined
2.25 = total value from both coins combined
0.10d + 0.05n = 2.25
Answer: 1/3 = 33.3% or 33 ⅓%
1/9 = 11.1%
2/9 = 22.2%
8/9 = 88.9%
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide the numerator by the denominator. Multiply the quotient by 100 to change the decimal to a percentage.
All of these are repeating decimals, so it may be required to keep at least one decimal place in the percentage, depending on how precise the calculation must be.
