the fraction that is equivalent to 4/6 is 2/3
Answer:
24 Combinations Total
Step-by-step explanation:
METHOD 1 (no advanced math skills needed)
i. Number the friends: a, b, c, and d
ii. List all possible combinations...
- a b c d
- a b d c
- a c b d
- a c d b
- a d b c
- <u>a d c b</u>
- b a c d
- b a d c
- b c a d
- b c d a
- b d a c
- <u>b d c a</u>
- c a b d
- c a d b
- c b a d
- c b d a
- c d a b
- <u>c d b a</u>
- d a b c
- d a c b
- d b a c
- d b c a
- d c a b
- <u>d c b a</u>
To speed up the process instead of sitting here and listing 24 combinations, after two sections you can see that with friend "a" sitting all the way at the left there are six combinations and the same goes for friend "b". You can then multiply 6 (number of combinations with that friend <em>first</em>) and 4 (friends) to get 24.
METHOD 2
n! means the total number for permutations calculation (1 x 2 x ... until you reach <u><em>n</em></u><em> </em>) = 24
<span>To write 215% as a decimal you can approach the problem two ways. You can divide 215 by 100.
215/100 = 2.15
You can also move the decimal two places to the left 215.0 = 2.15
To write 2.15 as a fraction you will place 215 over 100. {215/100}. You will then want to write this fraction in it’s simplest form. The greatest common denominator is 5 so you will then divide the numerator and denominator by 5.
215/5 = 43
100/5 = 20
215/100 = 43/20
To write this fraction as a mixed fraction you would divide 43 by 20.
43 ÷ 20 = 2 with a remainder of 3
This is written as: 2 3/20</span>
6 units as a mixed number will get you to 16
