3/2
<em>Step One:</em> 1 3/8, transform the number into a improper fraction:
- To have a mixed number in to a improper fraction, you need to use addition and multiplication. For 1 3/8, We first multiply the denominator (8, also know to be the bottom number of the fraction) to the whole number (1). 8x1= 8
- NOTE: The original denominator (8) will be use for are improper, again playing as the denominator, we only multiply the denominator for the numerator (which is the top number of a fraction).
- After multiplying, we'll add are product with the numerator (3) for the process. 8+3= 12
- Now we have both numerator and denominator for 1 3/8, we can create the improper fraction. 12 as the numerator and 8 as the denominator. 12/8
- We still need to simplify the number. To that, we need the biggest whole number, or rather I call it the lowest number, that can be divide both in 12 and 8.
- 4 can be divide by both number so: 12/4= 3 and 8/4=2
- Now 3 is are simplify numerator and 2 is are simplify denominator.
Answer:
Let total number of dog and cat population in animal shelter be x.
As per the statement:
An animal shelter has 9 puppies.
⇒ Total number of puppies = 9
It is also given that if the puppies are 36% of the total dog and cat population.
⇒ 
or
By cross multiply we get;
Divide both sides by 36 we get;
Therefore, total number of dogs and cat population in animal shelter are 25
Answer:
b=135
c=45
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(a) y(x)=53+7x
(b) 179
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the first row has 60 seats and next row has 7 additional seats then we can represent it as
First row=60
Second row=60+7=67
Third row=67+7=74
The difference is always 7. If you deduct 7 from dirst row we get 60-7=53 seats
To get rhe number of seats in any row x then let y be the number of seats in row x
y=53+7(x)
For raw 1
Y=53+7(1)=60
For raw 2
Y=53+7(2)=67
Therefore, the formula for number of seats at any row will be
y(x)=53+7(x)
(b)
Using the above formula
y(x)=53+7(x)
Replace x with 18 hence
Y(18)=53+7*(18)=179 seats
