12 yards of white 8 yards of blue and 2 yards of pink
Answer:
(1/6)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find the fraction that is equivalent to 1/36.
Let us look at each of them individually:
a. 
b. 
c. 
d. 
Therefore, the correct answer is c.
Answer:
3 a : 2 b = 6 : 1
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>
=
</em>
<em>3 ( a + b) = 5 ( a - b)
</em>
<em>3 a + 3 b = 5 a - 5 b
</em>
<em>5 b + 3 b = 5 a - 3 a
</em>
<em>
8 b = 2 a
</em>
<em>
2 a = 8 b</em>
<em><u>a = 4 b</u></em>
<em>3 a = 3 × 4 b</em>
<em><u>3 a = 12 b</u></em>
<em>3 a: 2 b = 12 b : 2 b</em>
<em>3 a : 2 b = 6 : 1</em>
When it says to estimate, I always think of doing it by hand to show work. So set it up like this:
96
<u>x 34</u>
So follow it out multiplying across 4*6 and 4*9 carrying over as needed to get it to look like this:
96
<u>x 34</u>
384
Do the same for the 3 to get this:
96
<u>x 34</u>
384
2880
Add 384+2880=3264
Your final answer is 3,264
