(-2/3)*(-2 1/4)*(3/4) Convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction.
(-2/3)*(-9/4)*(3/4) Then you multiply the numerators with numerators and denominators with denominators

(-2*-9*3) negative times negative is positive, so the negative sign is gone
-------------
(3*4*4*) The lines (-----) is the line of the fraction

54/48 This is the product of this multiplication, now you need to simplify
by reducing the numbers of the fraction

9/8 And that would be the answer

If 30 buses can carry 1,500 people, how many people can 5 buses carry? A 200 © 500 B 250 D 750

maksim [4K]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 250 \ people}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion using the following setup.

$\frac {buses}{people}=\frac {buses}{people}$

We know 30 buses can carry 1,500 people.

$\frac {30 \ buses}{1500 \ people}=\frac {buses}{people}$

We don't know how many people 5 buses can carry, so we say 5 buses carry x people.

$\frac {30 \ buses}{1500 \ people}=\frac {5 \ buses}{x \ people}$

$\frac {30 }{1500 }=\frac {5 }{x }$

Cross multiply. Multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the second fraction's denominator. Then, multiply the first denominator by the second numerator.

$30*x=1500*5\\30x=7500$
