So if 1/2 = 18 miles, we want to first find how many sets of 1/2 are in 21/2. We can just do this by dividing.
(21/2) / (1/2) = 21
So we know that there are 21 sets of 1/2 in 21/2, and since 1/2 and 18 are equal, we can say we know there are 21 sets of 18.
We can multiply to find this.
21 * 18 = 378
So two towns are 378 miles apart.
15. would be 1/2 because if you simplify 16/32 to 8/16 (dividing by 2 each time), then to 4/8, then 2/4, and lastly 1/2
you really dont need to do all of that because 16/32 is already 1/2 (16 is half of
32)
16. the answer would be 7/12 because if you divide 21/36 both by 3 you get 7/12 and you cant go any more simpler.
Answer:(3x+7)(x+2)
Step-by-step explanation:
7 = 14x - 42y
42y = 14x - 7
y = (14x - 7)/ 42
or we could write it as y = (1/3)x - 1/6
Answer:3/20
Step-by-step explanation:
Heads=Boy
Tails=Girl
If the first 3 students are boys, all 3 coins must be heads.
Because in 3 of these experiments, the coins all land on heads, and there are 20 experiments completed, 3 out of the 20 experiments are 3 boys; 3/20.
