What is the relationship between the expression 1/4 divided by 4 and 1/4 X 1/4? Explain.

1 answer:

5 0

The relationship would be that 1/4 ÷ 4 and 1/4 × 1/4 are the same.

This is because, if you were going to work out 1/4 ÷ 4, you would start with writing it as 1/4 ÷ 4/1.
Then, the rule for dividing fractions is you flip the second fraction and change the divide sign to a multiply sign, so that gives you 1/4 × 1/4.

I hope this helps!

The ages of two brothers are in the ratio two to three, but in eight years, the ratio of their ages will be three to four. What

Darina [25.2K]

X = older brother
y = younger brother

Equation 1: x/y = 2/3 ⇒ x = 2y/3
Equation 2: x + 8/y + 8 = 3/4

$( \frac{2y}{3} + 8) / y +8 = \frac{3}{4}$
$(2y + 24)/3 = y + 8 = \frac{3}{4}$
$2y + 24 = 3 (y + 8) = \frac{3}{4}$
$2y + 24 = 3y + 24 = \frac{3}{4}$
$4 (2y + 24) = 3 (3y + 24)$
$8y + 96 = 9y + 72$
$y = 24$

The age of the older brother is 24.

$x = \frac{2y}{3} = \frac{2*24}{3}$
$x = \frac{48}{3}$
$x = 16$

The age of the youngest brother is 16.
