(1) 6 1/3 = 76/12
2 3/4 = 33/12
___________+
109/12
divide and get 9 1/12
-----------------------------------
(2)3 1/2 = 43/12
5 1/2 = 66/12
*from first answer* 109/12
add and you get 218/12
divide and get the answer 18 1/6
Hope this helps you!
<h3>
Answer: Choice C) 421.9</h3>
=======================================
Explanation:
You're on the right track. You wrote down the proper expression to get the final answer, assuming you meant to write 75/4 as the third term inside the parenthesis. This works because each time you cut the side length in half to get each smaller triangle's side. The 3 is because there are 3 sides for each of the triangles. Much of this I have a feeling you already know as you wrote down the expression on the page, though I'm not 100% sure of your mindset. Computing this expression leads to 421.875 which rounds to 421.9
note: an alternative is to write 3*75 + 3*75/2 + 3*75/4 + 3*75/8, though that is more work. It's better to have that 3 factored out.
There are 60 students. The winner got 70% of the 60 students votes. Let's work this one out to get the answer.
First, you need to figure out what 70% of 60 is, by using this equation.
60 x .70 = 42.
Now that you know the answer is 42, you now know that 70 percent of 60 is 42.
So, the class president got 42 winning votes!
