The answer is 3 and 3/4 because you need to find the reciprocal of 1/5 which is 5/1. Then you have to multiply 3/4 by 5/1 and get 15/4. After that, you change your improper fraction to a mixed number to get the correct answer 3 and 3/4.

Answer:

The quotient is 3 and $\frac{3}{4}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the quotient of the division (which is just the solution, really), we have to solve the division itself:

$\frac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{1}{5}}$

$= \frac{3 \cdot 5}{1 \cdot 4}$

$= \frac{15}{4}$

Now that we know the quotient, we can look at the question itself to find it requires from us an answer with a whole number in it.

Therefore, we transform the fraction as thus:

$\frac{15}{4}$

$= 3 \frac{3}{4}$

Therefore, the final answer is 3 and $\frac{3}{4}$ .

Hope this helped!

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

At first you would subtract 39 from 60. Then you would do 21/5.5 and you would get 3.818… and due to the fact you can't go over 60 you would round to 3 and not 4

Distance = 100 m = 100/1000 = 0.1 km speed of train = 50 km/hr speed of horse = 56 km/hr resultant speed = (56 – 50) 6 km/hr time = distance/speed time = 0.1/6 = 1/60 hr = 1 min

Because it is extremely hard to find the area of this figure all together, it would be in our best interest to split this figure up into three different pieces: the two horizontal rectangles, and the verticle rectangle. We can find the area of all three and add them up. Be aware that there are two different ways that you can break this figure up, As shown in the attachments. I will be using the first image (the one with the tall horizontal rectangles, NOT the almost-squares).

So, we see that we have enough information to solve for the area of the left-most rectangle. Area = lw. 10 x 4 = 40, so the area is 40. Next, we have to notice, that the horizontal rectangles are also the same, so both of the areas of the two horizontal rectangles are 40.

Now, we can find the middle rectangle. We know that the length of the entire thing is 18, but it is taken up by 8 (4+4) of the horizontal triangles, so 18-8=10, so the length Is 10. We also know that the height of the horizontal rectangles is 10, so 10-3=7. Our dimensions for the rectangle are 10x7 or 70 square units. If we add them all together, 40+40+70=150.

The area is 150 square units
