Answer:

The first box will have 90 marbles, the second 180 and the third 270.

Step-by-step explanation:

Division in a ratio of 1:2:3

1 + 2 + 3 = 6

So

The first box will have 1/6 of the marbles.

The second box will have 2/6 = 1/3 of the marbles

The third box will have 3/6 = 1/2 of the marbles.

First box:

One sixth, so:

(1/6)*540 = 540/6 = 90

Second box:

One third, so:

(1/3)*540 = 540/3 = 180

Third box:

One half, so:

(1/2)*540 = 540/2 = 270

The first box will have 90 marbles, the second 180 and the third 270.

What is −3/8÷7/12 ?
RSB [31]

Answer:

-9/14

Step-by-step explanation:

This is my simplest-

Do the keep-change-flip method for this problem (and also any problem involving this)

KEEP -3/8

CHANGE the division sign to multiplication

FLIP the last fraction. 7/12 to 12/7

Now solve the problem by multiplying the fractions

-3/8 × 12/7 =

-3 × 12 = -36

8 × 7 = 56

-36 / 56 =

Simplify it by dividing the numerator (up of the line) and denominator (below the line) to get -9/14
