Step-by-step explanation:
You have 3/5 of an apple pie" means you have 3 pieces of the 5-piece pie
"You divide the remaining pie into 5 equal slices." means
(3/5 pie) / 5
The math:
(3/5 pie) / 5
is also
(3/5 pie) * (1/5) [to divide by fraction 5/1, invert to 1/5 and multiply]
is also (1/5) * (3/5 pie)
[This means 1/5 of the 3/5 of a pie that is left of"]
So,
each slice is (1/5)*(3/5) pie = 3/25 pie [multiply numerators and denominators]
These ones always feel weird. But we will read the problem directly and do what it says.
So it is 3/5 divided by 5.
Or 3/5/5.
But that looks really weird, so lets think of it like multiplying by 1/5 instead (which is the same as dividing by 5)
So, (3/5) * (1/5) which equals 3/25.
Everyone gets 3 twenty fifths of a pie.

Answer:
Domain: x>0
Y is all reals, so infinity.
They both have an area and are both 2d shapes and just shapes in general
Answer:
12 peppermint cupcakes 16 white cupcakes 22 chocolate cupcakes
Step-by-step explanation:
x+(x+4)+(x+(x+4)-6)=50
4x+4+4-6=50
4x+4-2=50
4x+2=50
4x=48
x=48/4
x=12 peppermint cupcakes
12+4= 16 white cupcakes
12+12+4-6=
12+16-6=
12+10= 22 chocolate cupcakes
check:
12+16+22=50
28+22=50
50=50 ✓
