If you are asking which is bigger then it is 4/6
77(7) = 539, the total points of all her tests
539 - 18 + 81 = correct total points = 602
602/7 = 86 which is the new average
The answer is B.)
The answers are using the distributive property. The distributive property multiplies both the numbers inside the parenthesis by the number that's on the outside of the parenthesis.
6x3 = 18, 6x4x=24x.
Hope this helps :) work hard!
Answer:
D. $81,728
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first convert pounds to ounces.
4 pounds x (16 ounces / pound) = <u>64 ounces.</u> (Remember that when we're converting from a larger unit, pounds, to a smaller one, ounces, we'll have more ounces than pounds, so this answer makes sense!)
Let's now get the cost of the gold.
64 oz x ($1277 / oz) = <u>$81,728.</u> (Wow, that's a lot of gold!)
They are not in proportion, since its 6:9 round it down (2:3) so pretend the 6 are apples and the 9 are oranges
Every 2 apples there are 3 oranges
So having 9 apples what is that?
2 x ? = 9
2 x 4.5 = 9
So if you want to keep 2:3 you have you times the oranges by 4.5 aswell!
3 x 4.5 = 13.5
So since it is 9:12 not 9:13.5 they are not in proportion
