The team ran 2 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; The track is
miles long and the team ran 2
laps on it. To calculate the distance run we multiply the number of laps ran with the distance on each lap.
Distance run = Number of laps × Distance on each lap.
Step 2; We convert 2
from a mixed fraction into an improper fraction. To do this, we multiply the whole number with the denominator of the fraction and add with it the numerator of the same fraction whereas the denominator remains unchanged. To convert the fraction 2
= ((2 × 3) + 2) / 3 =
.
Distance run = Number of laps × Distance on each lap =
×
=
= 2 miles.
Answer:
A- X= 20÷5-3
B- 20÷5=4; 4-3=1
C- X=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, well we have to work backwards. 20 cookies, and she makes 5 bags. We need to find out what 'x' means. To do that, we take 20 cookies and divide it by 5. 4 cookies. Then we want to take 3 cookies out of each bag to find out how many cookies she first put in. 1 cookie.
Let's check:
bag 1:
o (one cookie)
bag 2:
o (one cookie)
bag 3:
o (one cookie)
bag 4:
o (one cookie)
bag 5:
o (one cookie)
Now we have 15 cookies left. Now let's put 3 in each:
bag 1:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 2:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 3:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 4:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 5:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
Now we have no cookies left, and we put 4 cookies in each. (o representing the first cookie, v representing the next three cookies)
thousands period is the answer
You would subtract 5x from y so y=5x-10
