Answer:
It's 4
Step-by-step explanation:
It asks how many 3/8 cups are in 1 1/2 cups. So, we divide.
1 1/2 ÷ 3/8. We have to change the 1 1/2 into a improper fraction. 1 1/2 = 3/2. 3/2 ÷ 3/8 = 3/2 ÷ 8/3 = 24/6. Simplify, and you get 4. :)
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
-2a + 3 + 2a + 1
4
There's a property of logs I want you to remember, that is:
log(a)ᵇ = b*log(a)
We'll be using this property to solve the question
<u>Finding x:</u>
log(2)ˣ = log(3)
x*log(2) = log(3) [using the property mentioned above]
x = log(3) / log(2) [dividing both sides by log(2)]
Hence, the correct answer is option E.
Answer:
Larger fraction = 24/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Smaller fraction = 8/3
Larger fraction = ?
Let the larger fraction is x/y then according to the statement:
8/3 / x/y = 7/9
Rule: When there is a fraction in the denominator of a fraction, the lower fraction is reversed and multiplied with the upper one.
So, according to rule:
8/3 * y/x = 7/9
8y/ 3x = 7/9
Now multiplying both sides by 3/8 we get
8y/ 3x * 3/8 = 7/9 *3/8
After cancellation:
y/x = 21/ 72
By reducing it to lowest form (dividing both by 3)
We ge:
y / x = 7/ 24
This means y= 7
x = 24
So the larger fraction will become: x/y =24/7
Smaller fraction / Larger fraction = 7/9
8/3 / 24/7 = 7/9
Applying Rule:
8/3 * 7/24 = 7/9
56/ 72 = 7/9
Reducing it to lowest fraction: (dividing both by 8)
7/9 = 7/9
Hence proved
I hope it will help you!
