Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You find the biggest common number you can divide the numerator and denominator.

For example, we have our answer is 8/12 so you can divide it into 1,2, and 4. 8/12 divide by 1/1 =   8/12. 8/12 / 2/2 = 4/6. 8/12 / 4/4 = 2/3.

So the answer is 2/3.

Answer:

1/3 divided by 5/4

So we divide both the top by 3 and the bottom by 3 and so our final answer would be 4 over 7. So that's our simplified fraction

-------------

Invert and multiply:

Take the reciprocal of the divisor and multiply the dividend. The top and bottom are being multiplied by the same number. Since that number is the reciprocal of the bottom part, the bottom becomes one.

Find the biggest common number:

It could be said to be a "more correct" method. This is the correct way since, you can’t divide apples by oranges in the same way as you can’t divide fifths by fourths.

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, lets first find the number of footballs he still needs:

75-24 = 51

Now to find the number of packages, divide by 4, since there are 4 balls per package:

51/4 = 12 Remainder 3

Since there is a remainder, and the Coach MUST have at least 75, then we need to add a package to include the remainder:

12 + 1 = 13 Packages

The volume (V) of the complete figure is

V = volume of rectangular prism + volume of triangular prism

  = (16 × 7 × 3 ) + ( \frac{1}{2} × 3 × 5 × 6 )

  = 336 + 45

Answer:

Quadrant 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is quadrant two because the answer is in the form of -x,y. When the x is negative and the y is positive, it is always going to be in quadrant 2. As you can see in the image below, quadrant 1 is going to be all positive, quadrant two is going to be negative then positive, quadrant three is going to be all negative, and quadrant 4 is going to be positive then negative. Use this as a guide for the rest of your question. I hope this helps!
