Answer:
2/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of the rectangle strips are taped together to form a rectangle. Therefore 1 of the third of the rectangle would be red, this means that 1/3 of the rectangle would be red color. The rectangle is then divide into sixths, this can be achieved by dividing each of the taped strip into 2.
Therefore 2 of the sixths rectangle would be red in color, Hence the fraction of the rectangle that would be red is given as 2/6
Answer:
x = -80
Explanation
-40 divided by 1/2 is -80
Answer: 200 bulbs will not be defective.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of defective bulbs to good bulbs produced each day is 2 to 10. This ratio can also be expressed as 1 to 5 by reducing to lowest terms.
The total ratio is the sum of the proportions.
Total ratio = 1 + 5 = 6
This means that if n bulbs is produced, the number of defective bulbs would be
1/6 × n
The number of non defective would be
5/6 × n
Since n = 240, then the number of bulbs that will not be defective is
5/6 × 240 = 200 bulbs
