5/6 or 6/7

To find what is greater lets make the fractions into decimal.
To convert fraction to decimal you have to divide the numerator ny the denominator.

5/6
⇒ 5 ÷ 6
= 0.83333333333......

6/7
⇒ 6 ÷ 7
= 0.857142.....

0.857142.... is bigger then <span>0.83333333333......</span>

Therefore 6/7 is bigger then 5/7

16. Suppose Eva has 12 3/4 pounds of flour. The day's baking will require triple that amount.

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

$12 \frac{3}{4} \times3$

In order to find the answer, we have to convert the mixed number and then multiply by three, since how Eva needs triple the amount for today's baking.

$12 \frac{3}{4} \times3$
$12\frac{3}{4} =4\times12=48+3=51=\frac{51}{4}$
$3=\frac{3}{1}$
$\frac{51}{4} \times\frac{3}{1}$
$51\times3=153$
$4\times1=4$
$=\frac{153}{4}$

<u>Convert the improper fraction back into a mixed number:</u>

$\frac{153}{4}$
$\frac{153}{4} =153\div4=38\frac{1}{4}$
$=38\frac{1}{4}$

Which means Eva needs "38 1/4 pounds of flour" or option D for today's baking.

Solve for h, if the given equation is: s=2πr^2+2πrh solve

dolphi86 [110]

First isolate the group with h in it
minus 2pir^2 from both sides
s-2pir^2=2pirh
divide both sides by 2pir
(s-2pir^2)/(2pir)=h

I can’t figure out what the half circle means the answer options are 163,129,149 and 186

vodka [1.7K]

Answer: 129

Step-by-step explanation: First find the area of the circle. Since we know the area of a circle is πr² (pi multiplied by the radius squared) we can find the area of the half circle. The radius is 5 (because radius is half of the diameter)

Area=3.14(5)²

=3.14(25)

=78.5

But since this is just a half circle, divide this by 2

That will get 39.25

Then add this to the area of the rectangle (L*W) which is 90

That will get about 129
