Yes to both, and for future help, if you find a common denominator(the bottom one) by multiplication and one is higher, boom you have your answer.
1 + 1x
OR
1 + x
They mean the same thing! Hope this helps!
The correct answer is A. 1.5 cups
Explanation:
The total of polishing wooden furniture is equivalent to the total of olive oil plus the total of lemon juice. Additionally, in this case, the result should be given in cups. First, let's consider the values given.
50% of a cup of lemon juice + 25% of a quart with olive oil
The first quantity 50% of a cup of lemon indicates half cup of lemon was added, which is equivalent to 0.5 cups as 1 cup = 100% of a cup and 50% is the half.
Now, the second quantity is provided in quarts, which is not the same as a cup. Indeed 1 quart is equivalent to 4 cups, which represents 100%. This means 100% = 4 cups. Now, to calculate the 25% follow this procedure.
1. Write the values
4 = 100 (total percentage)
x = 25 (percentage to be calculated
2. Solve this by using cross multiplication
x100 = 4 × 25
x100 = 100
x = 100 ÷ 100
x = 1 (cups in 25%)
This means 1 cup of olive oil was added and this plus 0.5 cup of lemon juice is equivalent to 1.5 cups of solution.
To answer the question, we utilize the given data and solve for the number of customers left in the store after every 1 hour interval.
Initially, there were 75 customers.
1:00 to 2:00 : 75 + 30 - 12 = 93
2:00 to 3:00 : 93 + 14 - 8 = 99
3:00 to 4:00 : 99 + 18 - 30 = 87
4:00 to 5:00 : If the store does not accept any more customers except those who are already inside then, all 87 must leave between 4:00 to 5:00 in order to empty out the store by 5:00
ANSWER: (a) 4:00 to 5:00
(b) 87 customers
Express each ratio as a fraction in simplest form.2 yards to 45 feet
First, let's convert feet to yard to get the answer
=> 2 yard = x yard
=> 1 foot = 0.333333 yard.
=> 0.333333 yard * 45 = 15 yards, thus the answer is
