Answer:
3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
There are many ways to approach this problem. I like a method that uses the least amount of computation. We could figure how much Wendy makes on a bag of chips, the additional amount Wendy wants to make, then divide the latter by the former to find the number of additional bags to sell.
We could use a proportion to figure the number of bags corresponding to $126 in earnings, then subtract the 72 bags already sold. Essentially, we will do this, but without the intermediate numbers.
__
The additional fraction of 72 bags will be ...
(126/108) -1 = 18/108 = 1/6
Then Wendy must sell an additional ...
(1/6)×(72 bags) = 12 bags
to increase her earnings to $126.
Answer:
Rational number
Step-by-step explanation:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
- 12 boxes
- 10 pencils, 9 notebooks
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The number of boxes will be the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numbers 120 and 108. That number is 12.
120 = 12×10
108 = 12×9 . . . . 12 is the greatest common divisor
Matthew can make 12 boxes with equal numbers of the items.
__
b) 120 pencils divided by 12 will be 10 pencils per box.
108 notebooks divided by 12 will be 9 notebooks per box.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
It helps to be familiar with multiplication tables up to about 12×12.
The GCD can always be found using Euclid's algorithm. Look at the remainder when the larger number is divided by the smaller. If it is not zero, then replace the larger number with the remainder and repeat. If the remainder is zero, the divisor is the GCD.
Here, we have ...
120/108 = 1 r 12.
108/12 = 9 r 0 ⇒ 12 is the GCD
Answer:
155.448 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
5.1 ft *
30.48 / 1 cm
= 155.448 cm
A common question is How many foot in 5.1 centimeter? And the answer is 0.1673228346 ft in 5.1 cm. Likewise the question how many centimeter in 5.1 foot has the answer of 155.448 cm in 5.1 ft.
