Let’s get a common denominator for 3/4 and 3/8. 8 is our LCD so let’s multiply 3/8 by 2 on both the top and bottom. 3/8 then becomes 6/8. How many 3/8 are in 6/8? The answer is 2 because 3/8 + 3/8 is 6/8. So she cuts 2 pieces.

Answer: She cuts 2 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

Length of the board: 3/4 yard
Length of the pieces: 3/8 yard

So, to calculate the number of pieces we have to divide the length of the board (3/4) by the length of each piece (3/8)

Mathematically speaking:

3/4 ÷ 3/8 = (3x8) /(4x3)=24/12= 2 pieces

Fred the clown can create 20 animal balloons every 15 minutes.how many animal ballons can he make in 1 minute

insens350 [35]

Dividing the number of balloon animal per the time he takes to make them you get an average of how many animals per minute Fred the clown can make.

20/15=1,3 animals per minute

Since 0,3 is not a complete animal, the correct answer would be "Fred the clown can make 1 animal in 1 minute"

If angle I is congruent to angle K find the perimeter of triangle JIK?

inessss [21]

The perimeter of a triangle is given by the sum its three sides, then according to the figure above we have that:

$P=(7x-5)+(6x-5)+(9x-11) \\ \\ \therefore P=22x-21$

Thus, our goal is to find the value of $x$ and by finding it we will get the perimeter of the triangle. If ∠I = ∠K = β, then according to the Law of Sines we have:

$\frac{9x-11}{sin \beta}= \frac{6x-5}{sin \beta} \\ \\ \therefore 9x-11=6x-5 \\ \therefore 3x=6 \therefore \boxed{x=2}$

Lastly, the perimeter is:

$P=22(2)-21 \rightarrow \boxed{P=23 \ units}$
