Approximate conversions for cooking are ...
1 tsp ≈ 5 mL, so 1/2 tsp is about 2.5 mL
1 Tbsp ≈ 15 mL
1 cup ≈ 240 mL, so 1 1/2 cups ≈ 355 mL*
1 1/2 lb ≈ 680 g
_____
* 1 cup is about 236.6 mL.
_____
Many cookbooks have tables of equivalents.
Answer:
Area = 70 Perimeter = 50
Step-by-step explanation:
I will begin with area. I can find the area of each figure, then add the areas.
3 • 18 = 54
4 • 4 = 16
Area = 70
For perimeter, I will add the given lengths.
3 + 18 + 7 + 4 + 4 + 14
Perimeter = 50
1/2 and 3/8
equivalent
1/2 = 4/8
so 4/8 is greater than 3/8
Answer
5 1/2 is bigger than 5 3/8
Answer:
The probability that the month starts with the letter J or the letter M is 41.66%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a month of the year is chosen at random, to determine what is the probability that the month starts with the letter J or the letter M, the following calculation must be performed:
January - March - May - June - July = 5 months
(5/12) x 100 = X
0.4166 x 100 = X
41.66 = X
Therefore, the probability that the month starts with the letter J or the letter M is 41.66%.
For this case we have the following expression:

We multiply both sides by: 

We divide both sides by 216:

To divide powers of the same base, we place the same base and subtract the exponents:

Rewriting:

To multiply powers of the same base, we place the same base and add the exponents:

We know that any number raised to zero is 1, 
So, for equality to be true:
