Answer:
D) 2 less than the quotient of x divided by 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it's x/4 there has to be a quotient or division involved in the sentence, which eliminates A and B. Since there's a -2, C is eliminated since it doesn't include 2.
Answer:
3 & 43/80
Step-by-step explanation:
take 17 and 11/16 and turn it into a mixed number
you will get 283/16
keep, flip, change
so you will keep 283/16, flip the sign so you are multiplying instead of dividing, and then change the 5/1 to a 1/5
then just multiply straight across
you get 283/80
then simplify and get 3 and 43/80
In each quantity of 87 cg, 1 of them is active ingredient. In the quantity of interest,
... (1/87)·522 cg = 6 cg . . . is active ingredient
The remainder of that quantity, 516 cg, is inactive ingredient.
The answer is 1 and 2/3. 5/3 means 5 divided by 3. 5 goes into 3 once so the whole number is one. There is then 2 left so you are left with 2/3. 2 doesn't go into 3 so you leave it like that. This makes the answer 1 and 2/3 because 1 is the whole number and 2/3 is the unit fraction.
