Dividing by a fraction means the same as multiplying by its reciprocal.

In other words, change the division sign to multiplication

and flip or take the reciprocal of the second fraction.

So we can rewrite 2/13 ÷ 1/6 as 2/13 × 6/1.

Now multiply across the numerators and denominators to get 12/13.

Aunty Joan packs a packet of sweets to Alice and Olivia. Alice and Olivia share sweets in the ratio 7:3. Alice gives 3 sweets to

aivan3 [116]

Initially, Alice had 28 sweets and Olivia 12 sweets.

Step-by-step explanation:

First assume that Aunty Joan has x number sweets.

Alice and Olivia shared the x sweets in a ration of 7:3, this means

Alice had 7/10 x sweets and Olivia had 3/10 sweets.

Alice gives 3 sweets to Olivia, Alice will remain with ;

$\frac{7}{10} x-3$

Then the new ratio changes to 5:3 which means Alice will have 5/8 x number of sweets.

Equate the number of sweets for Alice in the two cases, which is

$\frac{5}{8}x=\frac{7}{10} x-3\\ \\\frac{7}{10} x-\frac{5}{8} x=3\\$

$\frac{56x-50x}{80} =3\\\\\\\frac{6}{80} x=3\\\\\\6x=80*3\\\\\\x=240/6\\\\x=40$

So there were 40 sweets at first

Using the ratio of 7:3 then

Alice had 7/10 *40 = 28 sweets

Olivia had 3/10*40= 12 sweets

Alice gave Olivia 3 sweets, so she will remain with 28-3 =25 sweets. Olivia will now have 15 sweets.The new ratio will be 25:15 simplified as 5:3.

nalin [4]

Answer:

<em>Okay, so what I think you mean to ask what the scale factor between the model and actual building</em> is, so i crunched the numbers. if 1 in equaled 8 feet and the actual thing was 64 ft, then we can just say that 64 divided by 12 is 5.3, so the model could be

5.3 ft. is the size of the model

BUT

you said how many feet are they apart so in inches its 705, in ft its 58.75

Step-by-step explanation:

a foot is 12 in.

64/12 is 5.3

64 ft is 768 inches, and 5.3 is 63.

768-63 = 705.

Ben ran 3/10 of a mile. Shelly ran 8/10 of a mile. How many more miles did Shelly run than Ben? A) 11/10 B) 11/20 C) 5/0 D) 5/10

attashe74 [19]

Hello there! Shelly ran D) 5/10 more miles than Ben.

To find the difference between the two runner's distances, subtract the smaller distance from the greater distance.

8/10 - 3/10 = 5/10

Since there is a difference of 5/10, this means Shelly ran 5/1 more miles.

I hope this helps, & have a great rest of your day! :)
