Write 5/10 in three equivalent forms

Answers

equivalent fractions are fractions which have the same value.

equivalent fractions all have the same simplified form

we can write equivalent fractions by multiplying both numerator and denominator by the same number. We can also write equivalent fractions by dividing both numerator and denominator by the same number

so 5/10

we can get the equivalent fractions by multiplying by a common number

when we multiply by 2

(5)/(10)* 2= (5*2)/(10*2) = (10)/(20)

when we multiply by 3

(5)/(10)* 3 = (5*3)/(10*3) = (15)/(30)

when we multiply by 4

(5)/(10) *4 = (5*4)/(10*4) = (20)/(40)

the three equivalent fractions are

10/20 , 15/30, 20/40

Some Equivalent Forms include:

0.5

10/20

50/100

Selma hypothesizes that the mass of a sample of water will not change if it is frozen. She conducts an experiment to test her hypothesis. Her experimental steps are as follows:1. Fill a beaker with 500 mL of water.
2.
3. Place the beaker in the freezer.
4. After the water freezes, place the beaker on the balance and measure its mass.

Which of the following steps is missing from Selma's experiment?

Place the beaker on the balance and measure its mass.
Run the water through a filter to make sure there are no impurities in it.
Set a timer for 2 hours.
Use a thermometer to measure the water's temperature.

Answers

place a beaker on a balance and measure the mass

Answer:

place the beaker on the balance and measure its mass.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to see if the mass of the water changed, Selma first needs to find out what the mass of the liquid water is in order to compare it to the mass of the frozen water.

Justin is training for a hamburger eating competition. He is eventually able to eat 15 hamburgers in 10 minutes.What is Justin's eating rate?
A) 1 hamburger per minute
B) 1.5 hamburgers per minute
C) 2 hamburgers per minute
D) 10 hamburgers per minute

Answers

Justin's eating rate is 1.5 hamburgers per minute. The correct option is C.

What is an expression?

The mathematical expression combines numerical variables and operations denoted by addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division signs.

Mathematical symbols can be used to represent numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping. They can also denote the logical syntax's operation order and other properties.

Given that Justin is training for a hamburger-eating competition. He is eventually able to eat 15 hamburgers in 10 minutes.

Justin's eating rate will be calculated as,

Number of Hamburgers eaten by Justin in 10 minutes = 15

The number of hamburgers eaten by Justin in 1 minute,

ER = 15/10

ER = 1.5

Therefore, the eating rate is 1.5 hamburgers per minute. The correct option is C.

Importance must always be given to all the information's that are already given in the question. Based on those information's the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Number of Hamburgers eaten by Justin in 10 minutes = 15
Then
The number of hamburgers eaten by Justin in 1 minute = 15/10
                                                                                         = 1.5
So option "B" is the correct option among all the options given in the question. It can seen from the deduction that Justin can eat 1.5 hamburgers in 1 minute. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.
