Answer:
The answer is 5/6.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets start with a=1.
a+1=2, which is the denominator. (1/2)
Taking the same number as numerator, now, consider a=2.
a+1=3, denominator.(2/3)
Now, let a=3.
a+1==4, denominator for a=3. (3/4)
If continued a becomes equal to 4.
a+1=5, which is also the denominator. (4/5)
Now, since the denominator is 5, let a=5.
a+1=6, which will become the denominator. (5/6)
Thus the series follows a pattern of a/a+1.
Work=speed times time (my equation to help me figure it out)
ok, 10 men take 84 days to complete a job
therefor, each man completes 1/10 of the job in 84 days
each man does 1/840 of the job per 1 day
so, if we had 5 more, or 15 men
15 times 1/840 times xdays=1 job complete
15/840 times xdays=1job
times both sides by 840/15
xdays=840/15
xdays=56
56 days it would take
Evan spent $2.27 on each pound of bird seed. To solve this divide the cost of the bird seeds by the pounds, which will lead you to this answer. Hope this helped! :)
the answer is supposed to be 132 at the most of a
for b it is 165
One way to carry out this problem is to simply take the value that you already know, which is that 1/5 is 20 % and multiply it by 2 for 2/5 or 2 (1/5ths) and do this for all of them. There is a pattern that occurs for every increase in one out of denominator of 5.
