Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent the total fabric as an integer = 1

Ellen divides a piece of fabric into 8 equal sections by drawing chalk lines.

= 1/8, hence each section = 1/8

Then she cuts off 5 of the sections to make into placemats.

This is written as: 5 sections × 1/8 = 5/8

The fraction of the fabric that is left is calculated as:

1 - 5/8

Lowest Common Denominator = 8

Hence: 8 - 5/8 = 3/8

The fraction of the fabric that is left is 3/8

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Each person would get <u>4 cup</u> cakes if all 8 friends attend the party.

Each person would get <u>12 cup</u> cakes when 6 friends not attended the party.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total Number of cup cakes = 36

Number of friends coming to party = 8

Total number of people cakes need to distributed including George = 9

We need to find the number of cup cakes each person would get;

Solution:

Now we can say that;

number of cup cakes each person would get is equal to Total Number of cup cakes divided by Total number of people cakes need to distributed including George.

framing in equation form we get;

number of cup cakes each person would get = \frac{36}{9}=4

Hence Each person would get <u>4 cup</u> cakes if all 8 friends attend the party.

Now Given:

Number of friends not attended the party = 6

So we can say that;

Total number of people cakes need to distributed including George = 9 - 6 = 3

So we can say that;

number of cup cakes each person would get = \frac{36}{3} =12

Hence Each person would get <u>12 cup</u> cakes when 6 friends not attended the party.
