Answer:

No. She should have multiplied 12 and One-half to solve

6 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of girls = 12

Each girl needs = 1/2 yard of strings

Suzie workings:

12/1 ÷ 1/2

= 12/1 × 2/1

= 24/1

= 24 yards

No. She should have multiplied 12 and One-half to solve

Correct workings:

Total strings needed for 12 girls = 12 × 1/2 yards

= (12*1)/2

= 12/2

= 6 yards

You just found a positive trend line showing a strong relationship between homework scores and test scores for five students. Ex
Scrat [10]

The positive trend among the homework scores and the test scores would reveal that if a student does well in homework, he is likely to do well in exams. This can be explained in the sense that the homework will serve as the practice for the student before finally taking the exam.

A rectangle has an area of 3 3/4 square feet. the length is 1 1/2 . what is the width
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The answer is 2  1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First you turn 3 3/4 into an improper fraction .To do that you multiply the denominator x the whole number + the numerator = 4x3=12 +3=15/4.

Then you turn 1 1/2 into an improper fraction .To do that you multiply the denominator x the whole number + the numerator =2x1+1=3/2

15/4 divided by 3/2 but get your answer you have to reverse 3/2 into 2/3 and you multiply instead of dividing .

15/4 x 2/3 =15 x2 = 30 , 4x3=12  so your answer will be 30/12 but it can be simplified because they are both multiple of 6 . So , 30 divided by 6 = 5 and 12 divided by 6 = 2 so then you answer is 5/2 but it is an improper fraction so you divide 5 by 2 and you get 2 and a remainder of 1/2=2 1/2
