Answer: x = 2,340 homes without children

There are 2,340 homes without children.

Step-by-step explanation:

'x' represent the number of homes without children

'y' represent the number of homes with children

x : y = 9 : 7

Since the total number of homes is 4160 means x + y = 4160.

From x + y = 4160 follows y = 4160 - x.

Plug y = 4160 - x into x : y = 9 : 7

x : (4160 - x) = 9 : 7

What is 5 x 2/9 as a fraction.
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

10/9

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you have to convert 5 to a fraction. 5/1 is equal to 5 so that means that 5/1 can work. 5/1x2/9=10/9 because all you have to do is multiply the numerator with the numerator and the denominator with the denominator.

Hope this helps
