What’s 8/15 divided by 4/5

Mathematics
1 answer:
iragen [17]2 years ago
8 0

Answer: 2/3

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we have 8/15 ÷ 4/5. Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. In other words, we can change the division sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction.

8/15 ÷ 4/5 can be rewritten as 8/15 × 5/4

Now, we are simply multiplying fractions so we multiply across the numerators and multiply across the denominators.

8/15 × 5/4 = 40/60 = 2/3

How many pairs of whole numbers have a sum of 110
kap26 [50]

There are different definitions of "whole numbers".

Some define it as an integer (i.e. positive or negative) [some dictionaries]

Some define it as a non-negative integer. [most math definitions]

We will take the math definition, i.e. 0<= whole number < &infin;

To find pairs (i.e. two) whole numbers with a sum of 110, we start with

0+110=110

1+109=110

2+108=110

...

54+56=110

55+55=110

Since the next one, 56+54=110 is the same pair (54,56) as 54+56=110, we stop at 55+55=110  for a total of 56 pairs.

The measure of an angle is seventeen times the measure of a supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?
blagie [28]
Supplementary angles are two angles that when add equal 180 degrees.
The supplement of an angle is 180 - n.

n = 17(180 - n)
n = 3060 - 17n
n + 17n = 3060
18n = 3060
n = 3060/18
n = 170

so the unknown angle (n) = 170 degrees and its supplement = (180 - 170 = 10)......= 10 degrees.

Sue wants to paint the longest wall in her bedroom pink. she measured the wall and found that it is 10 feet long and 8 feet tall
jekas [21]

Answer:

Sue should buy 1.6 quart of paint.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find out the area of longest wall

Area =length × breadth

Area= 10 × 8 = 80 square feet

To cover 50 square feet we have required 1 quart of paint

So for covering 1 square feet we have required 1/50 quart of paint

So for covering 80 square feet we have required  ( 1×80 ) / 50 quart

= 1.6 quart of paint

Solve the following addition and subtraction problems. a. 3 km 9 hm 9 dam 19 m + 7 km 7 dam b. 5 sq.km 95 ha 8,994 sq.m + 11 sq.
kipiarov [429]
As a general rule to solve the problem we are going to transform all values to the lower unit.  
a. 3 km 9 hm 9 dam 19 m + 7 km 7 dam
  3,000 m 900 m 90 m 19 m + 7,000 m 70 m = 4,009 + 7,070 = 11,079 m 
  b. 5 sq.km 95 ha 8,994 sq.m + 11 sq. km. 11 ha 9,010 sq. m.
  5,000,000 sq m 95,0000 sq m 8,994 sq m + 11,000,000 sq m 110,000 sq
9,010 sq m
  5,103,994 sq m + 11,119,010 sq m = 16,223,004 sq m 
 c. 44 m – 5 dm
  44 m - 0.5 m = 43.5 m 
 d. 73 km 47 hm 2 dam - 11 km 55 hm

  73,000 m 4,700 m 20 m - 11,000 m 5,500 m 
77,720 m - 16,500 m = 61,220 m
