2. 2 and 1/8 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

You just had to make common denominators and then your would subtract

Answer:

1) B

2) 2 1/8 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

1) make the denominator the same so it is 5 4/12 minus 2 9/12. You get 2 7/12 which is greater than 2 1/2 (2 6/12) and smaller th an 3

2) 8 7/8 minus 6 3/4 is equivalent to 8 7/8 minus 6 6/8 which is 2 1/8

All done mentally.

If a loan of $125,000 is for 10 years, and the interest rate paid was $65,625, what is the in treat rate on the loan?

Answers

for this problem you simply are solving for a different variable. we use the equation F=p(1+r)^T (assuming that the interest is compounded once a year). p=125,000 T=10 and we can add the interest plus the initial to get the final and find F=180,625. plug all these in and you get 180,625=125000(1+r)^10. solve for r in that equation and you get r=3.75%

if you want the work to solve the equation, first divide 180,625 by 125,000 and then take the quotient of that and put it to the 1/10 power. then minus 1 to solve for r (sorry for making it brief, it is a lot of numbers to type otherwise).

This is very simple!!

Don't worry, no need to panic.
.
Just add the number of minutes up!!
.
Write the numbers that you can see are evident down.
.
20... 2 hours and 30 minutes... no more.
.
BUT WAIT!! 
.
Half an hour looks suspicious.
.
Isn't that 30 minutes?
.
Add that to our list.
.
Now, we have to convert 2 hours to minutes.
.
Arggggh!!
.
Don't worry, there's 60 minutes in an hour, so 60 x 2 is 120 minutes!!
.
Add em' up!!
.
20 + 120 + 30 + 30 is...
.
200 minutes!!
.
Or, 3 hours and 20 minutes.

Hope I helped!!

Mr. Ito is spreading mulch in his yard. He spreads 4 2/3 squre yards in 2 hours. How many square yards can he mulch per hour?

Hey there, this is a division problem so we are going to divide 4 2/3 by 2. Change ÷ sign into × sign, Make 2 a fraction, 2=2/1. 4 2/3 as a improper fraction is 14/3, flip 2/1=1/2, now we have 14/3×1/2, 14*1=14 and 3*2=6. Now, we have 14/6. 14/6 simplified is 7/3, 7/3 as a mixed number is 2 1/3
You can divide 4 by 2 first, getting 2. Then you would divide the 2/3 by changing it to 4/6 and then dividing it to get 2/6, which is simplified to 1/3. Then you add your answers, so the answer is 2 1/3

Please simplify 8/243.
