Answer:

The answer is 1/625

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason is because 5a = 1/125

Therefore, to find the value of "a" we need to divide!

So, a = 1/125 / 5

           ⇒ 1/125 × 1/5    ( Reciprocal when we divide )                                                        

             ⇒ 1/125 × 5

             → 1/625

I hope this answer helps!

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

There will be 2 numbers of individual bags of chocolates left with Missy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Missy bought 4 bags of chocolates and there are 8 pieces of chocolates in each bag.

Therefore, there was a total (4× 8) = 32 chocolates.

Now, her kids ate 6 of the chocolates.

So, there remains (32 - 6) = 26 chocolates left.

If Missy packed the remaining chocolates into individual bags with 13 chocolates in each bag, then there will be \frac{26}{13} =2 numbers of individual bags of chocolates left with Missy. (Answer)
