the answer would be 0.800375 but when you round it to the nearest tenth it would be 0.8
3·m - 2/3 - 2·m + 1/4 = 2/12
m - 2/3 + 1/4 = 2/12
m = 2/12 - 3/12 + 8/12
m = 7/12
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 64 by 8 to get 8. this is 1/8 of the books.
3/8 were non fiction, or 24
1/4 (2/8) were picture books, or 16
5/8 were non fiction or picture books, so ’the rest‘ of the chapter books is 3/8.
3/8 were chapter books, or 24.
add the amount of picture books and chapter books since they are the fictional texts.
16+24=40
subtract the amount of non fictional books from the amount of fictional books to get the sum.
40-24=16
