The answer is 1/4 because all you have to really do is simplify
Answer:
You are correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with 1 1/2. This can be made into an improper fraction which is 3/2
Now multiply both top and bottom of 3/2 by 5
(3*5)/(2 * 5) = 15 / 10
16/10 is just slightly bigger than 15/10
9514 1404 393
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the width. Then the length is 2w-5, and the perimeter is ...
P = 2(L+W)
44 = 2((2w-5) +w)
44 = 6w -10
54 = 6w
9 = w
2(9) -5 = 13 = length
The length of the rectangle is 13 meters; the width is 9 meters.
X= 1/2 or x = 3/2.
Step 1: factor left side of equation. (2x-1)(2x-3)=O
Step 2: Set factors equal to 0. 2x-1=0 or 2x-3=0
X= 1/2 or x = 3/2.
If
1 bushel = 48 pounds
and 1 pound = 3 apples
48 pounds = x apples cross multiply
x apples = 48 X 3 ==> 144 apples
1 bushel = 144 apples (because 48 pounds = 1 bushel)
315 bushel = x apples
x apples = 144 X 315
x = 45360 apples
