The <em>correct answer</em> is:
2 pieces, with 1/12 m left over.
Explanation:
To find the number of 1/3 meter pieces she can cut from a 3/4 meter ribbon, we divide:
3/4÷1/3
To divide fractions, flip the second one and multiply:
3/4×3/1
To multiply fractions, multiply straight across:
(3*3)/(4*1) = 9/4
4 will go into 9 two times with 1 left over, so this simplifies to 2 1/4; this means she can cut 2 pieces this length.
2 pieces that are 1/3 meter long is a total of 2(1/3) = 2/3 m. To find out how much is left, subtract:
3/4 - 2/3
Common denominator is 12:
3/4 = 9/12 and 2/3 = 8/12
9/12 - 8/12 = 1/12
There is 1/12 of a meter left.
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 17 = 25 - 3x
Get the x's on one side and the integers on the other
3x + 3x = 25 + 17
6x = 42
x = 7
