Alright, so since I don't have an example question, I will make one up.
there are 8 coins in total. there are 6 dimes. What is the fraction of dimes to coins.
you would put the amount of dimes on the top and the total on the bottom.
Answer: 6/8 which can be simplified to 3/4
Or another Example:
There are 12 pieces in the pizza. Billy took 4. what is the fraction of the slices left.
it would be 4-12= 8
Answer: 8/12 which can be simplified to 4/6 and then to 2/3
Hope that helped.
Y/5-10 is the answer
Put it as a fraction. Y would be the numerator and the 5-10 as the denominator
Answer:
The correct answer is NO.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are total 32 actors. We need to divide the actors into equal groups.
Requirement 1: There must be at least 2 groups.
Requirement 2: There must be at least 6 actors in each group.
Requirement 3: There must be less than 8 actors in each group.
If we make groups of 6 actors each (group should have at least 6 actors), we will have 5 equal groups but would be left with 2 actors. This would violate requirements 2 as well as 3.
If we make groups of 7 actors each, we will have 4 equal groups but would be left with 4 actors. This would again violate requirements 2 as well as 3.
Lastly if we make groups of 8 actors each, we will have 4 equal groups. But this would then violate requirement 3 as each group has less than 8 actors.
Thus we cannot divide 32 actors in equal groups according to the given requirements.
You look for certain key words. The expression "at least" means "greater than or equal to." The expression " is no more than" means "less than or equal to." A sum means an addition. A difference is a subtraction. There are many other words that you need to look out for and translate into math symbols.
