2/8 is the fraction of stamps lost.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
÷ 
The reciprocal of is 3, so finding the reciprocal will replace the division sign with a multiplication sign.
= x 3
= or 1 or 1.5
I assume you mean the product of mixed numbers,
3 1/2 × 3 1/2
If we write this as
(3 + 1/2) × (3 + 1/2) = (3 + 1/2)²
we can use the identity
(a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
so that
3 1/2 × 3 1/2 = 3² + (2 × 3 × 1/2) + (1/2)²
3 1/2 × 3 1/2 = 9 + 3 + 1/4
3 1/2 × 3 1/2 = 12 1/4
Alternatively, we can first write 3 1/2 as a mixed number:
3 + 1/2 = 6/2 + 1/2 = (6 + 1)/2 = 7/2
Then
3 1/2 × 3 1/2 = 7/2 × 7/2 = (7 × 7) / (2 × 2) = 49/4
and
49/4 = (48 + 1)/4 = ((4 × 12) + 1)/4 = 12 + 1/4
Answer:
Given:
Two trail maps:
Trail on the first map = 8 cm
Trail on the second map = 6 cm
Scale on first map = 1 cm : 2 km
A) What is the scale factor from the map to the actual trail?
For the first map, the scale factor is 1 cm: 2km. Therefore the actual trail is 8 centimeters * 2 kilometers = 16 km.
The scale factor of the second map is 16 km / 6 cm = 2.67 km : 1 cm
B) The length of the actual trail is 16 kilometers.
