Lance and 7 other friends go to an activity center together. They each pay $5.95 for dinner, $4 for laser tag, $3.60 for bowling
yulyashka [42]
The original equation: 8(5.95)+8(4)+8(3.60)+8(2.25)= $126.4

To answer the question you should add all of the numbers within the parenthesis together: 5.95+4+3.60+2.25= $15.8

Then multiply that answer times the total number of people: 8(15.8)= $126.4

A 10 2/3 -inch long pipe is cut into 8 equal length pieces. How long is each piece?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Each peice is 1 1/3 (4/3) long.

Step by step explanation:

10 2/3 divided by 8

10 2/3 = 32/3

32/3 divided by 8 = 32/3 x 1/8

32 times 1 = 32, 3 times 8 = 24 =32/24

32/24 in simplest form is 4/3 (aka 1 1/3)

Hope this helped! :)
