Remember that multiplying is how many times you add a number to itself. If you multiply by 3, you add the first number to itself 3 times.
When you multiply a given number by 1, you get the first number (it doesn't change).
When you multiply by a number less than one, say, one half, you'll end up with half of the original number --> a smaller number.
When you multiply a number by more than one, you will get a number bigger than the original because you are adding it to itself more than once. Even if it is a fraction or decimal, if it is greater than 1, then the new product will be larger than the original number.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer: The number of times a yellow cube will be drawn is 390 times.
Step-by-step explanation: Like the last question with the blue cubes, set up a ratio.
Since it is still 240 times drawn and we need to figure out how many times a yellow cube will be drawn from 1200 times, the top number only changes.
78/240 = x/1200
Multiply 78 and 1200, which is 93,600.
Divide that by 93,600, which is 390.
Answer:
5 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
(2 1/4) / x = (1 1/2) / (3 3/5)
so
x = (2 1/4) * (3 3/5) / (1 1/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The measure of angle y is 62°.
I solve this by
We know: Measures of interior angles in a triangle add up to 180°.
Therefore we have the equation:
60° + 58° + y = 180°
118° + y = 180° <em>subtract 118° from both sides</em>
118° - 118° + y = 180° - 118°
y = 62°
The measure of angle x is 122°.
I solve this by
Angles 58° and x are supplementary angles.
Supplementary angles add up to 180°.
Therefore we have the equation:
x + 58° = 180° <em>subtract 58° from both sides</em>
x + 58° - 58° = 180° - 58°
x = 122°
