9514 1404 393

Answer:

  121/14  or  8 9/14

Step-by-step explanation:

The quotient of 1/8 and 1/4 is ...

  (1/8)/(1/4) = (1/8)(4/1) = 4/8 = 1/2

The product of 2 2/3 and 3 3/7 is ...

  (2 2/3)(3 3/7) = (8/3)(24/7) = (8·24)/(3·7) = 64/7

Subtracting the first result from the second gives ...

  64/7 -1/2 = (128 -7)/14 = 121/14 = 8 9/14

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

When subtracting fractions with denominators that have no common factors, I find it useful to make use of the formula ...

  \dfrac{a}{b}-\dfrac{c}{d}=\dfrac{ad-bc}{bd}

In this case, that gives us (64·2 -7·1)/(7·2) = (128 -7)/14.

How is ordering fractions on a number line similar to and different from ordering whole numbers on a number line?
Karolina [17]

Fractions and whole numbers ordered on the number line are similar because it tells parts throughout the line, like skip counting using adding or subtraction for example.

Whats different from them is because the fractions tell the parts more detailed between the whole numbers, such as 2 3/4 as a fraction on the number line. And 3 as a whole number on the number line.

yaroslaw [1]
First, you need to find out how many zippers are used to make one bookbag. To do that, you divide the zippers used to make the 3 backpacks.

12 / 3 = 4

So, 4 zippers are used per bookbag. Then, you divide the number of available zippers by four to find out how many bags she can make.

48 / 4 = 12

Roberta can make 12 bookbags.
