Answer:

13 Ocicats

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are told that an Ocicat eats 3/5 pounds of food per day.

Now, we have a bag of 19 1/2 pound of food and we want to know the number of Ocicats this will feed

What we just need to do is to divide the weight of the bag by the amount in pounds that can feed a single Ocicat

Thus, we have;

19 1/2 divided by 3/5

= 39/5 divided by 3/5

= 39/5 * 5/3

= 13 Ocicats

Answer:

A 19 1/2 lb of food will feed 4 ocicats for a week and will have 9/14 lb left.

Step-by-step explanation:

The bag contains 19 1/2 lb of food.

One ocicat eats 3/5 lb in 1 day.

To find how many days you can feed 1 ocicat with 19 1/2 lb of food, we divide 19 1/2 lb by 3/5 lb.

19 1/2 ÷ 3/5 = 39/2 × 5/3 = 65/2 = 32.5

The food in 1 bag is enough to feed an ocicat 32.5 days.

A week has 7 days.

32.5/7 = 65/2 × 1/7 = 65/14 = 4 9/14

A 19 1/2 lb of food will feed 4 ocicats for a week and will have 9/14 lb left.

Which action is not a step in using paper folding to find the midpoint of a line
dedylja [7]

Answer:

A. Draw a line from the segment to any point on the fold line.

Step-by-step explanation:

When using the paper folding method to find the midpoint of a line segment we take the following steps:

  1. Draw a line segment on the tracing paper
  2. Fold the tracing paper so that the endpoints lie on top of each other
  3. Mark the intersection of the fold and the segment with a point

These steps include statements B, C, and D. Drawing a line from the segment to any point on the fold line, which is statement A,  is not included in these steps because it is not needed.

Thus, choice A is not a step in using paper folding to find the midpoint of a line segment.

Ashley has 20 pieces of candy in a bag: 2 mint sticks, 4 jelly treats, and 14 fruit tart chews. If she eats one piece every 8 mi
AleksAgata [21]
The probability that her first treat is jelly is 4/20. Since she eats the candy and does not replace it, the probability the second treat is jelly would be 3/19 (1 less jelly and 1 less total candies). You would then multiply (4/20) by (3/19). That is your answer.
