Answer:1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert a ratio to a fraction, you divide the number on the left by the number on the right. This gets you (3/5)/6. When dividing fractions by whole numbers, you need to convert the whole number to a fraction. I converted 6 to 6/1, so that gave me (3/5)/(6/1). You then multiply the top number by the bottom number to get the numerator of the answer, and the middle 2 numbers multiplied is the denominator. The answer is (3x1)/(5x6), or 3/30, which can be simplified to 1/10.

There are 6 animals in the pen some are quails and some are goats if there are 20 legs in all how many quails and how many goats

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

4 goats

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent

Number of quails = x

Number of goats = y

Quails have 2 legs

Goats have 4 legs

Hence:

There are 6 animals in the pen some are quails and some are goats

x + y = 6...... Equation 1

x = 6 - y

if there are 20 legs in all how many quails

2x + 4y = 20..... Equation 2

We substitute 6 - y for x in Equation 2

2(6 - y) + 4y = 20

12 - 2y + 4y = 20

Collect like terms

- 2y + 4y = 20 - 12

2y = 8

y = 8/2

y = 4 goats

The number of goats there are 4 goats

Walt is mixing fruit punch for a party. He combines 1 gallon 2 quarts 3 pints of orange juice, 1 gallon 3 quarts 7 pints of pine

mafiozo [28]

1 gal + 2 qt + 3 pts
1 gal + 3 qt + 7 pts
1 gal + 3 qt + 3 pts
----------------------------add
3 gal + 8 qt + 13 pts

1 gal = 4 qts
1 gal = 8 pts
1 pt = 1/2 qt

13 pts = 6.5 qts
now we have 3 gal + (8 + 6.5) = 3 gal + 14.5 qts
12 qts = 3 gal
now we have : 6 gal + 2.5 qts or 6 gal + 2 qts + 1 pt <=== answer

Write an expression to represent: The sum of four and the product of three and a number x xx.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

4+3x

It's pretty straight forward, you have the number 4 that is added to the rest of the expression because sum is addition, and the product of 2 numbers is multiplication so it would make 3(x) or 3x, which results in 4+3x.
