How many 3/4s are in 6

1 answer:

7 0

Hey there!
Let's first find an easier situation.
If we're saying:
How many fives are in ten?
We're doing 10 divided by 5, because we're seeing how many 5's go into 10.
It's no different here.
We will be doing 6 divided by 3/4, just as we did with our simpler situation.
Using our "keep, switch, flip" rule (keep first term, change to multiplication, take reciprocal of second term)
we get:
6 divided by 3/4
=
6 * 4/3
= 24/3
= 8 3/4's in 6.

Hope this helps!

Evaluate the expression when x = 8 and y = 1.

Rzqust [24]

The answer should be 4.

First, simplify $\frac{8}{2}$ to 4. Your problem should look like: 4 x 1.
Second, multiply. 4 x 1 = 4 so that is your answer.

Also, to start the equation up, make sure to add in the numbers in replace for the letters. Your problem to start with should look like: $\frac{8}{2(1)}$ .
