Answer:

A) 1 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, make sure both of the fractions are improper fractions. -2 1/4 will become -9/4 and -1 1/2 becomes -3/2. Then we do the keep, switch, flip trick and get -9/4 X -2/3 and multiply across. Since we have two negatives, the answer becomes positive. When we multiply across we get 18/12, then we reduce and get 1 6/12 which is the same as 1 1/2.

Russell has a collection of 1,200 pennies. Of these pennies, 25% are dated before 1980, 35% are dated from 1980 to 2000, and the
STatiana [176]
480 pennies.

25% are dated before 1980, therefore:
1200(total):100 = 12 (1%)
12(1%)x25 = 300 (25%)

35% are dated from 1980 to 2000, therefore:
12(1%)x35 = 420 (35%)

25% are dated before 1980, 35% are dated from 1980 to 2000 and the rest are dated after 2000.
25% + 35% = 60%.
300(25%) + 420(35%) = 720.
60% = 720.
100%-60% = 40%.
40% is the amount of pennies that are dated after 2000.

The total (100%) of the pennies is 1200.
We also know that 60% of the total (1200) is 720.

1200(100%) - 720(60%) = 480(40%).

Therefore, the amount of pennies dated after 2000 in Russell’s Collection is 480.

The sum of two consecutive natural numbers is 525.<br> Find the numbers.
Luda [366]

Answer:

262 and 263 are consecutive natural numbers whose sum is 525.

Step-by-step explanation:

Natural number are a subset of real numbers consisting in positive integers (i.e. 1, 2, 3, 525) and two natural numbers are consecutive when distance between each other is equal to 1. (|x-y| = 1, \forall\,x,y \in \mathbb{N}) We can interpret the statement mathematically by means of the following expression:

x + y = 525

x = n

y = n+1

Where x, y, n \in \mathbb{N}.

This system is reduced to a single equation and solved afterwards:

n +(n+1) = 525

2\cdot n + 1 = 525

2\cdot n = 524

n = 262

Now we evaluate x and y to obtain the natural numbers:

x = 262

y = 263

262 and 263 are consecutive natural numbers whose sum is 525.
