To find out how much you need when you need a fraction of a number like 1/3 of 9, you can multiply the whole number by the fraction in most cases.

In some cases however, you can convert the whole number into a fraction and then divide it to get the amount in fractional units that you require.

For example:

1/3 of 9

Convert 9 to a fraction.

1/3 / 9/1

1/3 x 9/1 = 3/9

Therefore you would need 3 of 9 for 1/3.

aleksley [76]
10.) The measure of angle 1 is 131° according to the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem. The measure of angle 2 is 49° because 180° - 131° = 49°. I can do this because of the Linear Pair Postulate.

11.) The measure of angle 1 is 65° according to the Vertical Angles Theorem. The measure of angle 2 is 65° according to the Corresponding Angles Theorem.

Hope this helps!
