The bleachers at the football game are 7/8 full, and 1/2 the fans in the bleachers are rooting for the home team. What fraction
ioda

<u>Answer: </u>

The fraction of the bleachers filled with the home team is \frac{7}{6}

<u>Solution: </u>

Given that,

The bleachers at the football game are \frac{7}{8}

In those bleachers \frac{1}{2}  of the fans are rooting for the home team

So, the fans that are filled with the home team is \left(\left(\frac{7}{8}\right) \times\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\right)

Hence, the required fraction is \left(\left(\frac{7}{8}\right) \times\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\right)

Removing the brackets we get,

\frac{7 \times 1}{8 \times 2}

=\frac{7}{6}  

The required fraction is \frac{7}{6}

A small publishing company is planning to publish a new book. The production costs will include one-time fixed costs (such as ed
natka813 [3]
Production cost = one time cost + variable costs

Let the number of published books for equal production costs be n.

Using the first method:
production cost = 18,853 + 19.75n
Using the second method:
production cost = 64,853 + 8.25n

Now, we need the two production costs to be equal:
18,853 + 19.75n = 64,853 + 8.25n

Solve for n as follows:
18,853 + 19.75n = 64,853 + 8.25n
19.75n - 8.25n = 64,853 - 18,853
11.5n = 46000
n = 46000/11.5
n = 4000 books
