Answer: Nan

Step-by-step explanation:

21 divided by 4 is 5.25

if you turn that into a fraction, it will be 5 1/4.

if a decimal ends in .25 it will be equivalent to the fraction 1/4

think of it like with quarters, four of them make 1.00 and on quarter makes .25

Answer:

21/4 is equal to 5 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

converting improper fraction to mixed fraction

21/4 = (4*5 + 1 )/ 4 = 5 1/4

and 4 1/5 = (4*5 + 1) / 5  = 21 / 5

so Nan is correct

How can you make 2 cups of chocolate milk a gallon?<br> I know that 32 = a gallon
const2013 [10]
Well you could use the equation 32=2x or 32=(2*x) but if you're looking for an answer that is other than turning this into an equation, then it would be impossible to find an answer. I hope this helped ^^

A scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution B. Each contains salt. She knows that Solution A is
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

  • 26 ounces of 55% solution
  • 104 ounces of 80% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the quantity of 80% solution. Then 130-x is the amount of 55% solution. The total amount of salt in the mix is ...

  0.80x +0.55(130 -x) = 0.75·130

  0.25x = 0.20·130 . . . . . . . subtract 0.55(130)

  x = 0.20/0.25(130) = 104

  130-x = 26

She should use 26 ounces of 55% solution and 104 ounces of 80% solution.
