Answer:
105/8 = 13 1/8 = 13.125
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to turn the (-5 5/8) into a mixed number. The mixed number you should be getting is - 45/8. The second step is to convert the (-2 1/3) into a mixed number as well, your second mixed number should be -7/3. Next multiply the two fractions, - 45/8 x (-7/3) = 315/24.
We can simplify 315/24 by dividing by 3, so you'll divide 315 divided by 3 and 24 divided by 3 and you should get ... 105/8. So 105/ 8 is equal to
13 1/8. If you need this fraction in decimal form it is 13.125.
Solve Step by Step:
1) Write the Equation: 31/2 = how many pine cones Jenna and Ellen found.
2) Solve 31/2= 15.5
So each girl found 15 and a half pine cones. Or one girl found 15 and the other found 16. If you want to have each girl find an even amount.
The answer is 12.1, add both 4.5 and 7.6 and you get 12.1
