Answer:

3 1/5 spoons of chocolate syrup.

Step-by-step explanation:

You should try to convert mixed numbers into improper fractions because they are easier to work with. You can do this by multiplying the whole number by the denominator and then adding the numerator:

2 2/3 = 8/3

2 2/4 = 10/4 = 5/2

Now we need to set up a ratio:

(8/3)/(5/2)

So now we know the existing ratio of syrup over milk, we need to set up the unknown ratio. I'll use x as the variable:

x/3 (I put the gallons of milk on the bottom because in the previous ratio we also put the milk on the bottom. X means that we don't know the number yet.)

Now we set these two ratios equal to each other:

(8/3)/(5/2)=x/3

Then we cross multiply and set up an equation:

3*(8/3)=(5/2)x

Now we just solve:

8=(5/2)x

8*(2/5)=(2/5)*(5/2)x

16/5=x

3 1/5 = x

2.37 / x = 1<br> What is x?
NeTakaya

Answer: 2.37

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply each side by x to get  rid of the denominator on the left side.

You get:

2.37 = 1x

1x = x

Therefore, 2.37 = x.

Also, any number divided by itself must be 1.

The diameter of a circle is 3.2 meters. Which is the circumference of the circle rounded to the nearest hundredth of a meter?
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

10.05 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diameter is 3.2 meters, then the radius is 1.6 meters.

Use the circumference formula, C = 2\pir, and solve for C

C = 2\pir

C = 2\pi(1.6)

C = 3.2\pi

C = 10.05

So, to the nearest hundredth of a meter, the circumference is 10.05 meters
