Hello(:

So if they make four batches with 1/3 of a pound, simply multiply the reciprocal by four since that’s how you divide fractions. Answer is 1/12 hope I helped (:

1/12 of a pound.
you must use the reciprocal of 4, 1/4, then multiply. so 1/3*1/4= 1/12

Which of the following expressions are equivalent to \left(9\dfrac{7}{8} + 2\dfrac{4}{5}\right)-\dfrac{1}{2}(9 87 +2 54 )− 21

Answer:

$12\dfrac{7}{40}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$\left(9\dfrac{7}{8} + 2\dfrac{4}{5}\right)-\dfrac{1}{2}$

We need to find the simplified form of the given expression.

It can be rewritten as

$\left(9+\dfrac{7}{8} + 2+\dfrac{4}{5}\right)-\dfrac{1}{2}$

Combine integers and fractions separately.

$(9+2)+(\dfrac{7}{8}+\dfrac{4}{5}-\dfrac{1}{2})$

Taking LCM we get

$11+\dfrac{35+32-20}{40}$

$11+\dfrac{47}{40}$

In can be written as

$11+\dfrac{40+7}{40}$

$11+1+\dfrac{7}{40}$

$12+\dfrac{7}{40}$

$12\dfrac{7}{40}$

Therefore, the expression $12\dfrac{7}{40}$ is equivalent to the given expression.
