4 0

Answer:

First we need to turn the values into decimals

Step-by-step explanation:

5/8 = 0.625

1/2 = 0.50

1/4 = 0.25

Now add the decimal values up which would be 0.625 + 0.50 + 0.25 = 1.375

You can't have 1.375 of a pizza so joe's dad is going to order at the minimum 2 pizzas so that everyone can have their desired amount

Answer:

$8\frac{1}{8}$ ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of rows of corn $=2\frac{1}{2}$ rows.

Seed required in each row is $=3\frac{1}{4}$ ounces.

So, total seed required to plant corn in $2\frac{1}{2}$ rows is

Number of rows of corn $\times$ Seed required in each row

$=(2\frac{1}{2})\times(3\frac{1}{4})\\\\\ Multply\ denominator\ to\ whole\ number\ part\ then\ add\ that\ number\ to\ numerator\\\\=\frac{5}{2}\times\frac{13}{4}\\ \\Divide\ 65\ by\ 8\ we\ have\ 8\ with\ reminder\ 1\\\\=\frac{65}{8}\\\\So,\frac{65}{8} =8\frac{1}{8}$
