Answer:
2 1/7 pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
A factory makes rectangular sheets of cardboard, each with an area 2 1/2 square feet. Each sheet of cardboard can be cut into smaller pieces of cardboard measuring 1 1/6 square feet. How many smaller pieces of cardboard does each sheet of cardboard provide?
Each sheet of cardboard = 2 1/2 square feet
Each smaller pieces of cardboard = 1 1/6 square feet
Number of smaller pieces of cardboard per sheet of cardboard = Each sheet of cardboard ÷
Each smaller pieces of cardboard
= 2 1/2 square feet ÷ 1 1/6 square feet
= 5/2 ÷ 7/6
= 5/2 × 6/7
= (5*6) / (2*7)
= 30/14
= 15/7
= 2 1/7 pieces
Number of smaller pieces of cardboard per sheet of cardboard = 2 1/7 pieces
Answer:
Apples = 24
Pears = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let u be the unit of fruit in the basket,
number of apples: 
number of pears: 
now to find u, we equate the two equations.
Now simplify.
Now we can find the original number of apples and pears by substituting u.
so original number of apples = 
and original number of pears = 
This just means that thefraction<span> has been reduced. For instance 4 / 6 is </span>not<span> such a </span>fraction<span>, because the top and the bottom have </span>gcf<span> = </span>2<span>, but </span>2<span> / 3 is such a </span><span>fraction</span>
