Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:  Option 'C' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

(5)/(6)* 1(2)/(3)\n\n=(5)/(6)* (5)/(3)\n\n=(5* 5)/(6* 3)\n\n=(25)/(18)

But she gets (7)/(3) as an answer.

As we know that

(5)/(6)  of a number cannot be greater than the number.

Because the value of (5)/(6) is 0.84 which is less than 1.

So, (5)/(6)  of a number cannot be greater than the number

and

(7)/(3)=2.34\n\nbut\n\n(25)/(18)=1.38

1.38<2.34 i.e.

(25)/(18)<(7)/(3)

So, Option 'C' is correct.


Answer 2
Answer: Convert the mixed number 1 2/3 into an improper fraction first by multiplying the denominator by the whole number part and add the numerator to get the new numerator. Place the new numerator over the old denominator.

5 * 5/6 * 3

Multiply 5 by 5 to get 25. 

25/6 * 3

Multiply 6 by 3 to get 18. 

25/18

1 7/18

Answers

Answer:Rates. ... When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour, they are called unit rates. If you have a multiple-unit rate such as 120 students for every 3 buses, and want to find the single-unit rate, write a ratio equal to the multiple-unit rate with 1 as the second term.
