7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, kids are divided into 8 total parts.

7 - 1 = 6 more parts that are boys. The 48 extra boys are those 6 parts.

48/6 = 8 boys per part

All parts have the equal number of kids, so one part girls also has 8.

There are 8 girls (and 56 boys. 8:56 = 1:7).

Answer:

449/198 or 2 53/198

Step-by-step explanation:

2. 2676767 = x

10x= 22. 67676767

1000x= 2267. 676767

1000x-10x= 2267.676767- 22.67676767

990x= 2245
x= 2245/990
x= 449*5/5*198
x= 449/198
x= 2 53/198

Simplify (Are all division) 2+4i 3i 3+2i 4+i 2i^11

Alla [95]

$We\ know:\ i=\sqrt{-1}\to i^2=-1$

$\dfrac{2+4i}{3i}=\dfrac{2+4i}{3i}\cdot\dfrac{3i}{3i}=\dfrac{6i+12i^2}{9i^2}=\dfrac{6i+12(-1)}{9(-1)}\\\\=\dfrac{6i-12}{-9}=\dfrac{2i-4}{-3}=\dfrac{4}{3}-\dfrac{2}{3}i$

$\dfrac{3+2i}{4+i}=\dfrac{3+2i}{4+i}\cdot\dfrac{4-i}{4-i}=\dfrac{(3+2i)(4-i)}{4^2-i^2}\\\\=\dfrac{(3)(4)+(3)(-i)+(2i)(4)+(2i)(-i)}{16-(-1)}=\dfrac{12-3i+8i-2i^2}{16+1}\\\\=\dfrac{12+5i-2(-1)}{17}=\dfrac{12+5i+2}{17}=\dfrac{14+5i}{17}=\dfrac{14}{17}+\dfrac{5}{17}i$
