The reciprocal of 6/5 is D. 5/6
Reciprocal simply means swapping the position of the numbers in the fraction. The numerator becomes the denominator and the denominator becomes the numerator.
We need to get reciprocal of a fraction when division is performed.
For example: 2 ÷ 1/5
2 may be a whole number but in fraction form it is 2/1.
1st fraction = 2/1
2nd fraction = 1/5
In dividing fractions, the 1st step we need to do is to get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.
1/5 ⇒ 5/1
Then, we multiply the 1st fraction to the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.
2/1 * 5/1 = 10
So, 2 ÷ 1/5 = 10
Convert the percent to a decimal (0.055) Now multiply by the price
24.99 • 0.055 = 1.37
First, you must get rid of the fractions. You can do that by multiplying that 15. Then, you get:
45x-12=-5x
Then combine the like terms
50x=12
x=12/50=6/25
Answer: 1100 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
45% students are girls
45% girls in number = 900
1% be = 900x45= 20
55% students are boys
55% boys in number= 55x20= 1100 boys
They traveled approximately 165 miles.The speed is not constant so it is not the exact number.
