Answer:
To represent parts of whole numbers, we use fractions.
So if 4 kids are sharing 3 cookies, what happens?
First, we divide one cookie into four equal parts, and give one part to each kid. Then we do the same with the second cookie, and then with the third one.
In the end, each kid will have three pieces. Each piece is a whole cookie divided into four equal parts.
So we represent this amount as
3 (Number of parts) & 4 (How many equal parts the whole is divided into)
3
4
as a fraction
A fraction is made of two numbers :
The instantaneous slope at x = 5 is 1/5.
The answer is 1/5.
I assume you mean a^5 divided by a^4. This is a rule that applies to all exponents in that when you divide exponents, you subtract the top from the bottom. So, 5-4 is 1 and that would the answer is b
Answer:3/20
Step-by-step explanation:
Fraction of total area mowed = (3/5) + (1/4) = 17/20
Therefore fraction of total area left = 1 - (17/20) = (20/20) - (17/20) = 3/20
a = 2x + 6xz
a = x(2 + 6z) <em>factored out "x" on right side</em>
a/(2 + 6z) = x <em>divided both sides by (2 + 6z)</em>
Answer: x =
