Ask yourself what do I have to multiply by 12 to get an answer of 120 ( you can just do 120/12, which is 10) then, you multiply the other side by ten as well

Simplify 15(2/5+1 1/3)+3
loris [4]
So for order of operations you start inside the parentheses and in order to add the insides you will need a common denominator which would be 15 on the bottom. So for 2/5 it would be 6/15 and for 11/3 would be 55/15 and then added together it would be 61/15. so then you would multiply and get 15(61/15). the 15 in the numerator will cancel with the denominator leaving only 61 and then the final step would be adding the 3 to 61 and the final answer will be 64

The length of a rectangle is 4 less than three times its width. The perimeter is 72 feet. What are the dimensions of the rectang
Liono4ka [1.6K]
Say width equals x.
Length = 3x - 4
Solve for x: 72 = 2(3x - 4) + 2x
72=6x-8+2x
80=8x
X=10
So width = 10
Length= 3(10) - 4 = 26

a silkworm winds its cocoon out of one long silk fiber. to make silk thread, 3 to 10 of these silk fibers are unwound from their
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the silk fiber = x yards.

Let the number of silk fibres = a.

It is given that the silk fibers between 3 to 10 yards are combined to form a silk thread of 300 yards.

So, we get the equation,

ax=300, where 3\leq a\leq 10

i.e. x=\frac{300}{a}, 3\leq a\leq 10

So, the possible values of 'a' are 3, 4, 5, 6 an 10.

Thus, the possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.
