Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
(1/3) x = (5/6)
Discussion:
I think you are asking for this equation:
(1/3) x = (5/6) => multiply both sides by 3
(1/3) 3 x = (5/6) 3 => as (1/3) *3 = 1
x = 5*3/6
x= 15/6
x = 5/2 = 2.5
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
60/5 is equal to 12. so 12 x 2= 24, and 5 x 12=60, so 24/60, or just 24

Answer:
Number of people that can be served 7 ladles = 100 people
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that;
Initial number of ladles proposed per person = 5
Number of persons to be fed based on 5 ladles = 140 persons
Thus, amount of ladles based on that data is;
140 people x 5 ladle/1 person = 700 ladles full of soup
Now, since the cook decides to give 7 ladles full of soup to each person, the number of people that can be fed will now be;
700 ladles ÷ 7 ladles/person = 100 persons
Answer:
The ratio between two values A and B is just the quotient between these two values:
ratio = A/B
a) $280 in 7m
Here the ratio is:
$280/7m = $40/m
This also can be read as:
$40 per meter.
b) 105 miles in 2 hours
Here the ratio is:
105mi/2h = 52.5 mi/h
This also can be read as:
52.5 miles per hour
c) $33 for 5lb
The ratio is:
$33/5lb = $6.6/lb
This can be read as:
$6.6 per pound.
d) 50 pages in 2 hours
the ratio is:
(50 pages)/2h = 25 pages/h
this can be read as:
25 pages per hour.
