.
To find an equivalent fraction to 3
6
, or to any other fraction, you just need to multiply (or divide, if the fraction is not yet reduced), both the numerator and the denominator of the given fraction by any non-zero natural number. For example:
By dividing the original fraction by 3, we get:
3 ÷ 3
6 ÷ 3
= 1
2
By multiplying the original fraction by 2, we get:
3 × 2
6 × 2
= 6

Answer:
X = 8, Y = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1) Solve for Y w/ bottom equation to yield - y = -2/3x + 40/3.
Step 2) substitute equation into x + y = 16 to get 1/3x + 40/3 = 16 multiply by 3 to clear the fractions and get x + 40 = 48 - subtract 40 by both sides to get x = 8.
Step 3) Plug x = 8 into the bottom equation to get 48 + 9y = 120, subtract 48 by both sides to get 9y = 72 and then divide by 9. The product is y = 8.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Emma is making two different kinds of cookies for a cookie party she will be attending. She needs 2 and 2/3 cups of sugar for the first recipe and 1 and 1/4 cups of sugar for the second recipe. Emma thinks she will have enough sugar but she isn't quite sure. She knows that her full 2 pound bag of sugar says it contains 4 and 1/2 cups of sugar. Determine the exact difference between the amount of sugar Emma has and the amount of sugar she needs for the recipes.) Emma's mom brought home another 2 pound bag of sugar (4 and 1/2 cups) and wants to make fudge to take to work. Her mom will need 2 and 1/6 cups of sugar. Write a numerical expression that could be used to determine exactly how much sugar will be left over from the two bags of sugar after Emma bakes cookies and her mom makes fudge
Hi,
x + y = 350 (equation 1)
3x + 2y = 950 (equation 2)
Use Substitution Method
Isolate variable x in equation 1
x = 350 – y (equation 3)
Substitute equation 3 into equation 2
3(350 – y) + 2y = 950
1050 – 3y + 2y = 950
3y – 2y = 1050 – 950
y = 100
Substitute y = 100 into equation 1
x + 100 = 350
x = 250
Answer: 250 $3 tickets and 100 $2 tickets were sold.
The area of the square is 81 sq in, and the area of the circule is (3.14)(3 in)^2, or approx 3.14(9) sq in, or approx 28.27 sq in.
Subtract: 81 sq in - 28.27 sq in = approx. 52.73 sq in.
The difference is 52.73 sq in; the square is larger, the circle smaller.
