Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 7/8 by 1/4. (You divide the "supply" of raisins into 1/4 cup "parts".)
Multiply 7/8 by the reciprocal of 1/4 ("flip" the 1/4).
The result is 28/8, which can be simplified ("reduced") to 7.
Problem A
Usually the number of bits in a byte is 8 or 16 or 32 and recently 64. You don't have to write a formula to restrict it to this number of bits. You are not asked to do so. The general formula is 2^n - 1 for the problem of Millie and her golden keys. Somehow the system can be made to choose the right number of bits. Apple IIe s for example, used 8 bits and there was a location that told the processor that fact.
2^n - 1 <<<<< Answer
Problem B
In this case n = 4
2^n - 1 = 2^4 - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15
Millie can collect 15 keys <<<<<< Answer
Solution:
1) Simplify \frac{1}{6}x to \frac{x}{6}
y=\frac{x}{6}-2
2) Add 2 to both sides
y+2=\frac{x}{6}
3) Multiply both sides by 6
(y+2)\times 6=x
4) Regroup terms
6(y+2)=x
5) Switch sides
x=6(y+2)
Done!
36:8, 9:2, and 72: 16
Step-by-step explanation:
two ratios that are equivalent to 4:18
36:8, 9:2, and 72: 16
would all be equivalent. In order to find ratios that are equivalent to 18:4, you have to multiply both numbers by the same factor. For
