Answer:

The complete and simplified answer to the question what is 6/8 of 5 is:  

3 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

You probably know that the number above the fraction line is called the numerator and the number below it is called the denominator. To work out the fraction of any number, we first need to convert that whole number into a fraction as well.

Here's a little tip for you. Any number can be converted to fraction if you use 1 as the denominator: 5/1

So now that we've converted 5 into a fraction, to work out the answer, we put the fraction 6/8 side by side with our new fraction, 5/1 so that we can multiply those two fractions.

That's right, all you need to do is convert the whole number to a fraction and then multiply the numerators and denominators. Let's take a look:

 

6 x 5/ 8 x 1  =  30 /8

In this case, our new fraction can actually be simplified down further. To do that, we need to find the greatest common factor of both numbers.

You can use our handy GCF calculator to work this out yourself if you want to. We already did that, and the GCF of 30 and 8 is 2.

We can now divide both the new numerator and the denominator by 2 to simplify this fraction down to its lowest terms.

30/2 = 15

8/2 = 4

When we put that together, we can see that our complete answer is:  

15/ 4

 

If you now simplifiy the COMPLETE anwser is:

3 3/4

What is the number between 3400 and 4400
xxTIMURxx [149]
First find how many numbers are between the two by subtracting
4400 - 3400 = 1000
now to find half way between the two divide 1000 by 2 
1000/2 = 500
so the number between the two is 500 +3400 and 4400-500
which is 3900

Use the diagram to find the angle measures of the triangle. Recall that the sum of the angle measures of a triangle is 180 degre
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

x =29

x+6 =35

4x = 116

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180

x+ (4x) + (x+6) = 180

Combine like terms

6x+6 = 180

Subtract 6 from each side

6x+6-6 = 180-8

6x = 174

Divide each side by 6

6x/6 = 174/6

x =29

x+6 = 29+6 = 35

4x = 29*4 =116

The formula for finding the volume of a rectangular prism can be stated as V= l x w x h, wHerr l=length of the prism, w=width of
blagie [28]

Answer:

1)

23265


2)

9478.125

3) 102369.09375

Formula nonsense: V=l*w*h

1) meaning V= 33*47*15 so V= 23265

2) meaning V= 22.5*33.7*12.5 so V= 9478.125

3) meaning V= 122.25*50.75*16.5 so V= 102369.09375

The Potter Valley basketball team did not record how many baskets each player made during the last game. Jenny remembers that sh
lesya692 [45]

Answer:  The approximate values that every player make are,

Tammy = grace = 5.43 baskets

Jenny = 16.30 Baskets

Alex = 11.43 Baskets

Joan = 1.43

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Grace made x baskets.

Then According to the question,

Jenny made baskets = 3x

Alexis made basket = x + 6

Joan made basket = x - 4

Tammy made baskets = x

Since,  Altogether the five players made 40 baskets.

⇒ x+ 3x + x + 6 + x - 4 + x = 40

⇒ 7x + 2 = 40

⇒ 7x = 38

⇒ x = 38 / 7 = 5.42857142857 ≈ 5.43

Thus, Grace made baskets= Tammy made baskets = x = 5.43

Jenny made baskets = 3 × x = 16.2857142857 ≈ 16.30

Alexis made basket = x + 6 = 11.4285714286  ≈ 11.43

Joan made basket = x - 4 = 1.42857142857

≈ 1.43
