Answer:
51/56
Step-by-step explanation:
When dividing two fractions, you can get the same result by multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
So,
17/28 ➗ 2/3 can be rewritten as:
17/28 ❌ 3/2
Then, simply multiply the numerators and the denominators together.
17*3=51
28*2=56
So, the answer is 51/56.
This fraction is already in its simplest form, so it cannot be reduced.
To put this into simpler terms, well simplier for me anyways, Emma is dividing 9 inches of paper into 2/5, or .4, inches of paper.
That being said, we now just need to divide 9 by 2/5 or .4
We get 22.5
So Emma will be able to make 22 strips since we can't have half a strip. (Well, we could, but it would be small than what we need)
Any questions?
Answer:
y=1/2x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug it into the formula for a point and a slope.
(y-(y(subscript 1)))=(m)(x-(x(subscript 1)))
Y-8=1/2(x-6)
Then multiply the 1/2 to the x and -6. After you do that, move everything so that it has y by itself on the left. Your ending should be y=1/2x+5.
