Use the benchmark 1/2 to compare 5/8 and 2/7

Mathematics
1 answer:
kondaur [170]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if you used a compound statement, it would look like this.

2/7 < 1/2 < 5/8

One half is bigger than 2/7. It is much closer to 1/4 than 1/2. 1/4 = 2/8 so 2/7 is just a little bit less than that.

On the other hand 1/2 is just smaller than 5/8. 1/2 = 4/8 so you can see that 1/2 is less than 5/8.

Dude is making 12 pounds of nut mixture with macadamia nuts and almonds. Macadamia nuts cost $9 per pound and almonds cost $5.25
pshichka [43]

Number of pounds of macadamia nuts is 8 pounds and number of pounds of almonds is 4 pounds.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Step 1:

Given total pounds of mixture = 12 pounds, cost of macadamia nuts per pound = $9, cost of almonds per pound = $5.25, total cost of mixture per pound = $7.75.

Let number of pounds of macadamia nuts be x and number of pounds of almonds be 12-x.

Step 2:

Form an equation using the above information.

⇒ 9x + 5.25 (12-x) = 12 × 7.75

⇒ 9x + 63 - 5.25x = 93

⇒ 9x - 5.25x = 30

⇒ 3.75x = 30

⇒ x = 8

Number of macadamia nuts is 8 pounds.

Step 3:

Calculate number pounds of almonds

⇒ Number of pounds of almonds = 12 - x = 4 pounds.
