Saying that there are 6 students that play flute for every four that play saxophone.
4+6= 10 and we need 50 so we have to multiply each by 5. 6 times 5 is 30. therefore there are 30 flute students. but we are looking for saxophone! 4 times 5 is 20 so there would be 20 saxophone players.

There are 20 saxophone players. For every 6 flutes there are 4 saxophones so if you do 6x5=30. Then you would do 4x5 and get 20. 30 flutes plus 20 saxophones = 50 total students

Answer:

Let's calculate:

22-5

• Remove minus in the exponent and invert the base:

= (1/22)5

• Expand the multiplication:

= (1/22) * (1/22) * (1/22) * (1/22) * (1/22)

• Find your result:

= 1/5153632 ≈ 0.000000194038

Ajax is 5 and 1 fourth feet tall. His sister is 3 eighths foot shorter than Ajax How tall is Ajax Sister?
user100 [1]

Answer:

4\frac{3}{4} feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Ajax is "5 and 1 fourth feet tall", which can be written as the mixed number 5\frac{1}{4} .

His sister is "3 eighths foot shorter", so she's 3/8 feet shorter than 5 1/4.

So, this is just a subtraction problem:

5\frac{1}{4} -\frac{3}{8}

To solve this, we want to convert 5 1/4 into an improper fraction, which is: \frac{21}{4} . Now, we want to find a common denominator. In this case, that common denominator is 8, so \frac{21}{4} =\frac{42}{8} .

Finally, we subtract 3/8 from 42/8: \frac{42}{8} -\frac{3}{8} =\frac{39}{8} . So, Ajax's sister is 39/8 feet. Converting this into a mixed number, we have: 39/8 = 4\frac{6}{8} =4\frac{3}{4} .

Therefore, Ajax's sister is 4\frac{3}{4} feet tall.

Hope this helps!

Irina18 [472]
In words:
Three sandwiches, each costing $5.25, equals 1/3 of Cassie's total money

We can write the formula:

(5.25*3)=1/3x

Now solve:

15.75=1/3x
3(15.75)=x
x=$47.25
