Answer:

2 1/7 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

A factory makes rectangular sheets of cardboard, each with an area 2 1/2 square feet. Each sheet of cardboard can be cut into smaller pieces of cardboard measuring 1 1/6 square feet. How many smaller pieces of cardboard does each sheet of cardboard provide?

Each sheet of cardboard = 2 1/2 square feet

Each smaller pieces of cardboard = 1 1/6 square feet

Number of smaller pieces of cardboard per sheet of cardboard = Each sheet of cardboard ÷

Each smaller pieces of cardboard

= 2 1/2 square feet ÷ 1 1/6 square feet

= 5/2 ÷ 7/6

= 5/2 × 6/7

= (5*6) / (2*7)

= 30/14

= 15/7

= 2 1/7 pieces

Number of smaller pieces of cardboard per sheet of cardboard = 2 1/7 pieces

Pleasee! Which expression is equivalent to the given expression? Assume the denominator does not equal zero.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

A. 2y^4 over x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^4y^6 ÷ 7x^8y^2

First, you will find the GCF of the equation which is: 7x^4y^2 .

Then, you will divide both of the equation by the GCF which will become:

14x^4y^6 ÷ 7x^4y^2 = 2y^4

7x^8y^2 ÷ 7x^4y^2 = x^2

Hence, the final answer is 2y^4 over x^2

Find the area of the shaded region.<br> help pls
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

1. 50 m

2. 80 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

1. There are 2 triangles, subtract the area of 1 of them from the other.

The triangle that needs to be subtracted: b = 20 m, h = 10 m

A = 1/2b * h = 1/2(20) * 10 = 10*10 = 100 m

The big triangle, the one that needs to be subtracted plus the one you need to find the area of: b = 20 cm, h = 15 cm, 1/2(20) * 15 = 10 * 15 = 150

150 - 100 = 50 c

2. Divide it into 3 parts:

1- 3*4 = 12

2. 7*(4 + 4) = 7*8 = 56

3. [(4 + 4) * (13 - 7 - 3)]/2 = (8*3)/2 = 24/2 = 12

12 + 56 + 12 = 80 cm
