Answer:
The multiplicative inverse is -5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiplicative inverse means we want to end up with 1
-3/5 * what =1
Multiply by 5 to clear the fraction
-3/5 * what *5 = 1*5
-3 * what = 5
Divide by -3 to isolate what
-3*what /-3 = 5/-3
what = -5/3
The multiplicative inverse is -5/3
Cups of flour=15 3/4=15+ 3/4=(4*15+3)/4=63/4
Cups of sugar=10 1/2=(2*10+1)/2=21/2
We solve this problem by rule of 3:
63/4 cups of flour--------------100 people
x------------------------------------ 25 people
x=(63/4 cups of flout * 25 people)/100 people=1575/400 cups of flour=
=63/16=(3*16+15)/16=3 15/16 cups of flour.
21/2 cups of sugar-----------------100 people
x-----------------------------------------25 people
x=(21/2 cups fo sugar * 25 people) / 100 people=525/200 cups of sugar= 21/8 =(2*8+ 5)/8=2 5/8 cups of sugar.
Answer: 3 15/16 cups of flour and 2 5/8 cups of sugar.
The answer is obviously not A and B so that leaves us with only C or D and the one that id the best choice would have to be C because it gives good information about how it is used and where it would be installed
Hope this helped : )
You can use the proportion.
$4.99 / 1 kg = x / 1.8 kg
x = ($4.99 * 1.8 kg) / 1 kg
x = $8.98
Therefore, in 1.8 kg of potatoes, it costs at $8.98
