Kate gave 5/6 of her CDs to Sue. Sue gave 7/8 of these to Joan. Joan gave 3/5 of these to Ann. Ann received 70 CDs how many did
olya-2409 [2.1K]
Let us assume the number of CDs Kate had = x
Number of CDs given to Sue = 5x/6
Number of CDs given to Joan = (5x/6) * ( 7/8)
                                                = 35x/48
Number of CDs given to Ann = (35x/48) * (3/5)
                                              = 7x/16
Total number of CDs Ann received = 70
Then
7x/16 = 70
x = 160
From the above deduction, it can be concluded that the number of CDs that Kate originally had was 160. I hope that this is the answer that has actually come to your help.

Hi!! Please help me with this question. I got an answer of 63.25 but it was incorrect and need to redo it. Please also explain h
matrenka [14]

Answer:

x ≈ 63.27

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan49° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{EF}{DE} = \frac{x}{55} ( multiply both sides by 55 )

55 × tan49° = x , then

x ≈ 63.27 ( to the nearest hundredth )

Answer:

45°

Step-by-step explanation:

If we consider a full rotation to be 360°, we can simply divide 360 by 8 to find 1/8 of a full rotation.

360 ÷ 8 = 45

1/8 of a full rotation is 45°
