Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Pete found 5/6 of a party sand which in the refrigerator. He took 1/2 of the 5/6 of the sand which to his neighbors.

This is calculated as:

1/2 × 5/6

= 5/12

Hence, he took 5/12 of the sand

How much of the original sand which did pete take to his neighbors.

Let the original sand be represented as 1

Hence:

5/6 = 5/12 sand

1 = x

Cross Multiply

5/6x = 1 × 5/12

x = 5/12 ÷ 5/6

x = 5/12 × 6/5

x = 1/2

Therefore, pete took 1/2 of the original sand to his neighbors.

Which of these transformations appear to be a rigid motion? <br> Please help me!!!!!
Alenkasestr [34]

The answer is the third answer choice, I and II only.


This is because both of those motions are rigid since they are just reflections and III is not a rigid motion since it is a dilation, the second triangle is bigger than the first.


Hope this helps!
