<h3>Answer:  5 cakes</h3>

================================================

Explanation:

Let's start off converting the mixed number 12 & 1/4 to an improper fraction.

a \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a*c+b}{c}\\\\12 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{12*4+1}{4}\\\\12 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{49}{4}\\\\

Do the same for the other mixed number 2 & 1/3.

a \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a*c+b}{c}\\\\2 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2*3+1}{3}\\\\2 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{7}{3}\\\\

-----------------------

From here, we divide the two fractions. I converted them to improper fractions to make the division process easier.

\frac{49}{4} \div \frac{7}{3} = \frac{49}{4} \times \frac{3}{7}\\\\\frac{49}{4} \div \frac{7}{3} = \frac{49\times 3}{4\times 7}\\\\\frac{49}{4} \div \frac{7}{3} = \frac{7\times 7\times 3}{4\times 7}\\\\\frac{49}{4} \div \frac{7}{3} = \frac{7\times 3}{4}\\\\\frac{49}{4} \div \frac{7}{3} = \frac{21}{4}\\\\

The last step is to convert that result to a mixed number.

\frac{21}{4} = \frac{4*5+1}{4}\\\\\frac{21}{4} = \frac{4*5}{4}+\frac{1}{4}\\\\\frac{21}{4} = 4+\frac{1}{4}\\\\\frac{21}{4} = 5 \frac{1}{4}\\\\

Note that 21/4 = 5.25 and 1/4 = 0.25 to help check the answer.

-----------------------

Therefore, she can make 5 cakes. The fractional portion 1/4 is ignored since we're only considering whole cakes rather than partial ones.

How high is the stack of the two books? novel and 3/4 inches and dicitonary 41/2
sergejj [24]
3/4 + 4 1/2 = 5 1/4

If you mean that the dictionary is 41/2 then the answer = 3/4 + 20 1/2 = 21 1/4. That's a big diction though and not likely measured correctly.

A right triangle has a hypotenuse of 10 feet and a leg of 6 feet. What is the length of the other leg?
Artemon [7]

Answer:

The other length of the leg is <em>8 feet.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer we have to find what<em> 10</em> and <em>6 is squared.</em>  <em>10 x 10 = 100</em>.  

<em>6 x 6 = 36.  </em>Now since we are trying to find the length of the other leg, we will <em>subtract 100 from 36</em> and we get <em>64</em>.  Then for the last step, we will figure out what number<em> squared equals 64.</em>  Because 8 x 8 = 64, <em>8 is our answer.</em>
