P(n)=news time/total time
We are told that the news is 14 minutes long during an hour so
p(n)=14/60
p(n)=7/30
Answer:
The answer is 40.
Step-by-step explanation:
4x5 for the square part.
2x10 for the rectangle part
add them
The order of division determines the numerator and the denominator and this can effect the value. And example of this:
3/2 = 1.5
2/3 = 0.6667
Whereas, multiplication is not affected by the order:
2 x 3 = 6
3 x 2 = 6
Answer:
He can make 3 batches of soup.
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting with 10 pounds of tomatoes and taking out the number of pounds he sets aside for spaghetti sauce, 2.8, we have:
10-2.8 = 7.2 pounds left.
0.2 is read as "two tenths," so 7.2 = 7 2/10
We divide this remaining number of pounds by 2 2/5 for each batch of soup:
7 2/10 ÷ 2 2/5
Convert each to an improper fraction:
72/10 ÷ 12/5
Multiply by the reciprocal:
72/10 × 5/12 = 360/120 = 3
