To make fruit punch for a party, we need 4 1⁄2 gallons of ginger ale, 1 gallon of strawberry juice, 2 3⁄4 gallons of frozen oran
lina2011 [118]

For this case we convert the mixed numbers to fractions:

4 \frac {1} {2} = \frac {2 * 4 + 1} {2} = \frac {9} {2}\\2 \frac {3} {4} = \frac {4 * 2 + 3} {4} = \frac {11} {4}

Now we add the fractions:

\frac{9} {2}+1+ \frac {11} {4} + \frac {1} {8} =

We find the least common multiple of the denominators. The l.c.m is 8, then we divide by each denominator and multiply the result by each numerator.

\frac {36 + 8 + 22 + 1} {8} =\\\frac {67} {8} =

8,375

Thus, the punch recipe implies 8.375 gallons. If we convert to a mixed number we have:

8 \frac {3} {8} gallons

Answer:

8 \frac {3} {8}gallons

The sum of three consecutive even integers is 54. Find all three integers.
matrenka [14]
A good way to find the answer to these questions is to find it algebraically. Let's call the first number 'n'. 
n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 54
3n + 6 = 54
3n = 48
n = 16
Therefore the numbers are 16, 18, 20

Solution

Problem 6

For this case we can do this:

12, 16,__, 14, 8, 7

We can solve for x like this:

\frac{12+16+x+14+8+7}{6}=13x=13\cdot6-(12+16+14+8+7)=21

T, C

T, T

It is clearly seen that there are 9 transportation options.

(Using cab 1 time we have BC, CB, CT, TC. So four of the transportation methods use cab one time.)

Therefore, the probability that she will use a cab only once is 4/9.
