forsale [732]

Answer:

4 toothpicks.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Kiley had a piece of bamboo skewer that measured 14 3/5 inches long. She wanted to cut it into toothpicks that were each 3 1/5 inches long.

To find the number of toothpicks that Kiley can make from bamboo skewer, we need to divide the length of skewer by length of each toothpick.

Total number of toothpicks = 14 3/5 ÷ 3 1/5

First of all, we will convert our given mixed fractions into improper fractions as:

Total number of toothpicks = 73/5 ÷ 16/5

Dividing a fraction by another fraction is same as multiplying the 1st fraction by the reciprocal of 2nd fraction.

Total number of toothpicks = 73/5 x 5/16

Total number of toothpicks = 73/16

Total number of toothpicks = 4.5625

Therefore, Kiley can make 4 toothpicks.

Answer:

The answer is "0.975"

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attched file.

Find the remaining distance inside the original map

$\to \frac{9}{6}=1.5 \ in$

Dividing the value by 6 because there are 7 rest stop:

$\to \frac{2 \ inches}{39 \ inches} =\frac{1.5 \ inches}{x \ miles}\\\\\to x=39 \times \frac{1.5}{2}\\\\\to x=29.25 \ miles$

Finding the diatance of the rest stop in the new map

Using proportion:

$\to \frac{1 \ inches}{30 \ miles} =\frac{x \ inches}{ 29.25 \ miles}\\\\\to x= \frac{29.25}{30}\\\\\to x=0.975 \ in$

If you want to convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the top by the bottom. Fractions are basically glorified division.

1/2 = 0.5

And you can convert this to a percent by moving the decimal two places to the right. And change it to a % sign.

0.5 => 50%
