Answer:

28 minutes

3.5 x 8 = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Feeding the whole school (8/8) would take 8 times as long as feeding 1/8 of the school.

3 1/2 can become 3.5 if that's easier for you to work with.

Feeding 1/8 of the school is 3.5 x 1 = 3.5

Feeding 2/8 of the school is 3.5 x 2 = 7

Feeding 8/8 of the school is 3.5 x 8 = 28

It takes 28 minutes to feed the whole school (8/8)

James bought 12 cookies and ate 3 of them. He ate ____% of the cookies.
morpeh [17]
12 - 3 = 9
So there are 9/12 cookies left. 
So then John ate 3/12 cookies. 
3/12 = 1/4 
Convert into a decimal. .
1/4 = 0.25
0.25 = 25%
So, James bought 12 cookies and ate 3 of them. He ate 25% of the cookies.

Find the circumference of the circle. Round to the nearest tenth.
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Formula for the circumference of a circle: C = pi x diameter

We are given the radius here, but we need the diameter. The diameter of a circle is equal to two times the radius.

diameter = 40 x 2 = 80 in

C = pi x 80

C = 80pi = 251.3 in

Hope this helps!! :)
