So, the sphere went from 1.2 meters to 1.4 meters.
The radius will always be half of the diameter. So it went from .6 to .7.
Let's divide and see what percent .7 is of .6.
.7÷.6=1.166666666(repeating 6).
This means, it increased by about 16.7%, since it was not doubling, just going up.
Answer:
1. Either none (if you have to buy a whole pound), or 1/4 of a pound
2. 3 whole pounds or 3 and 1/4 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
If $4 = 1 pound, then we know that $1 (which is 1/4 of $4), will let you by 1/4 pound of blueberries. Knowing this, we can simply:
Add up the one fourths
do 1/4 times $$
See how many times 4 goes into the number of dollars you have
Please correct me if I'm wrong :)
Step-by-step explanation:
to find a common denominator, you have to find a number that "works" with every other number.
for example, say you have
2/4 and 8/12
First you need to find the common factor between 4 and 12, so list all your fours
4, 8, 12, 16, 20
Now list all your twelves
12, 24, 36, 48, 60
to find the common factor you look at both your list of numbers and find one that's the same, sometimes it takes a long list of numbers to find the common factor, but you will run into one.
So by looking at our list we see that 4 and 12 share the common factor of 12. but since 8/12 already has a denominator of 12, we are going to leave it alone.
now think about what you would multiply 4 by, to get to 12. The answer is
4 x 3 = 12
to make the numerator correct, you multiply it by the same number you did 4, so since your faction is 2/4 you should do 2 x 3 = 6
now you have your answer,
2/4 and 8/12 turns into
6/12 and 8/12
and that's how you find it, let me know if you have questions :)
