Answer:
Paul should give 18 teaspoons of medicine to his dog.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is stated in the question that for every 12 pounds, 3 teaspoons of medicine is to be given to the dog.
This implies that:
12 pounds = 3 teaspoons
1 pound = 3/12 teaspoons
= 1/4 teaspoons <em> ( by cross multiplication )</em>
<em />
<h3>72 pounds = 1/4 * 72 teaspoons</h3><h3> = 18 teaspoons</h3><h3 />
Hence, Paul should add 18 teaspoons of medicine to his dog's food.
Answer:
you can make 14 muffins
Step-by-step explanation:
To get this answer you first need to know that 1 cup makes 8 muffins. Next know that there's 1 3/4 cups of flour. Because you know that 1 cup makes 8 muffins you need to figure out how many muffins 3/4 a cup of flour can make. To do this you divide 8 by 4. Hence 8 divided by 4 is 2. So know you know that for every 1/4 cup you can make 2 muffins. Now since there's 3/4 cup of flour you then multiply 2 by 3 which is 6. Now you have to add 1 cup ( 8 muffins) to 3/4 cup ( 6 muffins ) of flour which then equals 14. You then get the answer , 1 3/4 cups of flour can make 14 muffins. Hope this helped ;)
I would simply solve the fraction as a division question. To divide 36 by 10, just move the decimal one place to the left. That gives you 3.6
Answer:
4x^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The greatest common factor is the greatest number that can divide the terms. The greatest number that can divide each term is 4, and the greatest power of x that can divide each term is x^2. This is because it can't be any number greater than 4 since that number would never be able to divide into 4. This is also the reason why x^2 is the greatest power possible. It cannot be greater than anything divisible by itself. Thus, you multiply 4 by x^2 and the answer is 4x^2.
Answer:
b=1/12 or just 12
Step-by-step explanation:
combine like terms
1/3b +12=16
subtract 12 on both sides
1/3b=4
divided both sides with 1/3
b= 12 or 1/12
