Answer:3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8 of the staff are male. The entire staff is represented by the fraction 8/8. Taking 5/8 from this, what we have left is
8/8-5/8 = 3/8 of the staff are female.
Answer:
3-7x
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this question, you can use a factor tree, or the table thing (I forgot what it’s called.)
You divide the number by one of its PRIME factors, until there is only one left. The numbers you divided it by are written as shown.
Hope this helps. :)
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume you meant :
the restaurant has 20 1/2 pounds of bananas.
one smoothie uses 1/8 pound of bananas.
how many smoothies can be made with the amount of available bananas ?
the answer is as many as the times 1/8 fit into 20 1/2.
so, we actually calculate
(20 1/2) / (1/8)
first we will convert the mixed number into a true fraction :
20 1/2 = 40/2 + 1/2 = 41/2
so we have
41/2 / 1/8
and then, when dividing fractions we have 2 choices (they do both the same, of course, but start looking differently) :
a/b / c/d = a×d / b×c
a/b / c/d = a/b × d/c = a×d / b×c
so,
41/2 / 1/8 = 41×8 / 2×1 = 41×4 = 164
they can make 164 smoothies.
The length of would be 9 and the width 7, resulting in an area of 63
