First you need to convert 32 into a fraction, so just add 1 as the denominator; 5/8 ÷ 32/1. But you can't divide fractions, so multiply by the reciprocal. 5/8 · 1/32. You should get 5/256 as your answer. I hope that helped!
So here we're dealing with equivalent fractions.
It's really simple to find the answer, so I'll try to explain the best I can.
2 dogs / 5 cats is really just 2/5.
If we want to find an equivalent fraction, we have to multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number.
Currently the number of cats is 5, and we need it to be 140. What we need to do is find the number it has to be multiplied by to equal 140, which is 140 divided by 5. 140 divided by 5 is 28, so 5 x 28 = 140!
We need to multiply the denominator (5) by 28, so that we can get 140. What we have now is ?/140.
Like I said, to find an equivalent fraction, we need to multiply the numerator by the same number as we did the denominator, which is 28!
2 x 28 = 56.
So 2/5 is the same as 56/140.
The answer is D) 56 Dogs/140 Cats.
Hope this helps!

Answer: the equations are
k = d + 33
k - 2 = 4(d-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the present age of Kevin be represented by k
Let the present age of Daniel be represented by d
Kevin is 33 years older than Daniel. This means that the expression for their current age is
k = d + 33
Two years ago, Kevin was 4 times as old as Daniel. This means that 2 will be subtracted from their present ages to depict two years ago. Therefore, Two years ago for Daniel will be d-2
Two years ago for Kevin will be k - 2
Remember that Kevin was 4 times as old as Daniel two years ago, it becomes
k - 2 = 4(d-2)
Answer:
they're all rational numbers
Step-by-step explanation:
rational numbers are positive, negative, or zero integers. they can be decimals as well.
first expression = 2.449.... + 3 = 5.449 (yes, it is rational)
second expression = 8 + 0.54545454... = 8.545454... (yes, it is rational)
third expression = 6 + 4.582575... = 10.4582575... (yes, it is rational)
fourth expression = 4 + 13 = 17 (yes, it is rational)
fifth expression = 17.43... + 7 = 24.43.... (yes, it is rational)
sixth expression = 6.6332... + 5 = 11.6332 (yes, it is rational)
