Answer:
7 and 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
31/4=7-3
the remainder is 3/4
Answer:
1. 11 minutes
2. (0, 1, 2)
3. 64
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
- The additive inverse of −3 is +3, so 16 − (−3) = 19
- negative 6 over 8 minus negative 1 over 8 = negative 5 over 8; therefore, the distance from A to B is absolute value of negative 5 over 8 equals negative 5 over 8 units
- Because it is 3 units to the left of 2 on a horizontal number line

<em>Comment on the second question</em>
Note that the second question asks for the distance from -6/8 to -1/8. Ordinarily, the distance from A to B would be computed as B - A. In this set of answer choices, it is computed as |A - B|. In the end, the result is the same.
Personally, I would compute the distance between points on a number line by subtracting the left point from the right point. Here, that would also correspond to B - A.

<em>Comment on choosing 'word' answers</em>
In a set of answers like these, one way to choose answers is simply to eliminate the ones that make a false statement. Often, you are left with only the correct answer choice.
For example, the statement "the additive inverse of -3 is -3" is a false statement, so the first two answer choices can be eliminated. Likewise, the statement 16 -(-3) = 13 is false, so that choice can be eliminated. The one remaining answer is the correct one.
So 1/2 of 3/4 is 3/8 which is equal to 6 cookies ( or 3/8 of a packet has 6 cookies)
So if we say a packet of cookies = X
and we know 8/8 of a packet of cookies = 1 full packet of cookies
( 8/8 of a packet or 1 full packet has X cookies )
Then 3/8 divided by 8/8 = 6/X
3/8 = 6/X
X = 6 divided by 3/8
X = 16
So there should be 16 cookies in a full packet
