Answer:
Part A
12 pieces
Part B
Tara can cut Twelve 2/5 foot pieces can be cut from 4 4/5 feet of rope.
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A: How many 2/5 foot pieces can Tara cut from the 4 4/5 feet of rope?
This is calculated as:
4 4/5 feet of rope ÷ 2/5 foot pieces
= 24/5 ÷ 2/5
= 24/5 × 5/2
= 12
Part B: Using the information in Part A, interpret the meaning of the quotient in terms of the two fractions given
The quotient in Part A is 12
Therefore, this can be interpreted as:
Tara can cut Twelve 2/5 foot pieces can be cut from 4 4/5 feet of rope.

Answer:
175/3 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that each man peel potatoes at the same rate
The time required
= 5 x 35 / 3
= 175/3 minutes
54, 36, 24 are the 1st 3 element of a geometric progression with 2/3 as a common ratio: PROOF:
the 1st term is 54, (a₁= 54) the 2nd term a₂ = 24, then
(a₂ = a₁.r) or 36 = 54.r → r= 36/54 = 2/3. Same logique for the 3rd term.
So 2/3 is common ratio. We know that :U(n) = a.(r)ⁿ⁻¹. Then if a =54 and r = x (given by the problem), then f(x) = 54.xⁿ⁻¹
n, being the rank of any element of this geometric progression
The answer is most likly to be B.
