Just multiply man 2*4 2*3 1.5*4 and 1.5*3.
The correct answer is C. 4.
Typically, we look to multiply by the bottom number (the denominator) in order to get fractions to cancel out. If we multiply 1/6 by 6, we get just 1, which is why we do it.
In this problem, you have two different denominators, 2 and 4. If you multiply them all by 2, the term -3/4m will still be a fraction.
-3/4m * 2 = -3/2m
As a result, we must try 4 instead. This causes all of them to cease being a fraction. Even the one with 2 as a denominator.
-1/2 * 4 = -2
First, change 7 2/3 to an improper fraction
7 x 3 = 21 + 2 = 23
23/3 is the amount Maria made
Find a common denominator for all: 24
(23/3)(8/8) = 184/24
(5/6)(4/4) = 20/24
Subtract the amount she drank from the whole
184/24 - 20/24 = 164/24
Find 3/4 of the bottle
(164/24)(3/4) = 5.125
finally, divide the number gotten with 3
5.125/3 = 1.70
1.70 pints were in each bottle.
hope this helps
Their is 16 ounces in each pound so that 16 x 2= 32+9
You're answer is 41
Find the term that goes into both - in this case, it's 2.
Therefore, we divide both numbers by 2 to simplify.
4/2 = 2
6/2 = 3
So the simplified form is 2 : 3
