Yes half of 8 is 4 equaling 4/8. Since she knitted 5/8, then she knitted more than 1/2. Hope this helps:)

Answer:

Fraction of Scarf Knitted by Bess

=\frac{5}{8}

Remaining fraction of Scarf which is to be Knitted

1-\frac{5}{8}=\frac{3}{8}

equivalent fraction in eighths for 1/2

=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{4}{4}\\\\=\frac{4}{8}

\frac{5}{8}>\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2}

Yes, Bess has knitted more than =\frac{1}{2} of the scarf.

Solve for W: P=2L + 2W<br><br>A. W=P-L<br>B. W= 1/2P - L<br>C. W= 1/2 P + L<br>D. W= 2P - L​
svetlana [45]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

P=2L+2W

P-2L=2W (Subtract 2L from both sides of the equation)

2W=P-2L (Symmetric Property of Equality)

W=\frac{P-2L}{2} (Divide both sides of the equation by 2)

W=\frac{P}{2} -\frac{2L}{2} ("Split" the fractions)

W=\frac{1}{2}P-L (Simplify)

Hope this helps!
