A bookstore had 81 copies of a magazine, Yesterday the bookstore sold 7/9 of these copies. How many copies were sold yesterday?

I believe 63 copies were sold (like the person above said)

How I would have done it is found out what 1/9 was, by dividing 81 by 9 which is 9, then multiply 9 and 7 to get the amount of books sold which is 63

Please correct me if I am wrong, have a good day!

Answer:

a. 1.2 ohms

b. 6 ohms

Step-by-step explanation:

As with any problem involving evaluation of a formula, substitute the given values for the corresponding variables and do the arithmetic.

$R=\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{R_1}+\dfrac{1}{R_2}}=\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{1}{3}}=\dfrac{1}{\left(\dfrac{5}{6}\right)}=\boxed{\dfrac{6}{5}=1.2}$

$R=\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{R_1}+\dfrac{1}{R_2}}=\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{10}+\dfrac{1}{15}}=\dfrac{1}{\left(\dfrac{5}{30}\right)}=\dfrac{30}{5}=\boxed{6}$
