The answer is .07 to this question
Answer:
Ed used 39/60 of one hour to complete his tasks.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the least common denominator (LCD), which would be 20
Then, find how to get from 5 to 20 and 4 to 20.
Use division.
20/5 = 4, 20/4 = 5
After this, multiply the numerator to the according number.
2*4 = 8 = 8/20
1*5 = 5 = 5/20
Make the denominator 60 to represent 60 minutes in one hour
5/20*3/3 = 15/60
8/20*3/3 = 24/60
Add the two results.
15/60 + 24/60 = 39/60
Hello, Kana back on for some more questions! :3
let's see what you have now...
what are these questions ._. ...I can't understand hmmm...
Firstly, do you know what the | a - i | stands for? and are you trying to divide?
For the mix you need 60 Ib of nuts and raisins, and 60 lb of mix will sell for $300.
Let <em>x</em> be the weight of nuts and <em>y</em> the weight of raisins needed for the mix.
Total weight = <em>x</em>+<em>y</em> = 60, so <em>y</em> = 60 - <em>x</em>
Total value = 6<em>x</em> + 3<em>y</em> = 300. From the above, we can substitute the <em>y</em> for 60 - x:
Total value = 6<em>x</em> + 3(60 - <em>x</em>) = 300, which we can simplify to:
6<em>x</em> + 180 - 3<em>x</em> = 300, and simplify again to:
3<em>x</em> = 120, and again to:
<em>x</em> = 40. We can now calculate<em> y</em> from the first equation y = 60 - <em>x</em>, so:
y = 20.
40 lb of nuts and 20 lb of raisins. Check:
40 lb x $6/lb = $240, and 20 lb x $3/lb = $60, $240 + $60 = $300.
