Well, you're asking for a refresher on multiplying fractions, but then the
example at the end of your question uses the symbol for division, not
multiplication. So I'll just give you the rules for both operations, and let you
choose the one you need.
To multiply fractions:
-- Multiply the two numerators.
Write the product on top of a new fraction.
-- Multiply the two denominators.
Write the product on the bottom of the new fraction.
-- The new fraction is the product of the two original fractions.
To divide fractions:
-- Invert (flip) the second fraction.
-- Then multiply them.
-- Their product is actually the quotient of the two original fractions.
Answer:
The solution is (3,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
x - y = 1 →equation 1
-x + 3y = 3 →equation 2
by elimination method,
x - y = 1
-x + 3y = 3
-----------------
0 + 2y = 4
2y = 4
y = 4/2
y = 2
substitute y=2 in equation 1
x - y = 1
x - 2 = 1
x = 1 + 2
x = 3
∴(3,2) is the solution
Answer:
440 students.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given is a table showing the results of a survey.
No of people surveyed = n (say)
No of people who prefer pop music = (5/8) n
(Since given in the table proportion for pop music = 5/8)
But actual studdents who prefer pop music =275
In other words
5n/8 = 275
Cross multiply to solve
5n=2200
divide by 5
n= 440
Thus total people surveyed= 440
Verify:
No of students who prefer Pop music = 440(5/8) = 55(5) = 275
Thus verified
