What is the answer to 2 3/8 ÷ 1 1/4

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 2(3)/(8) ÷ 1(1)/(4) equals 1(9)/(10).

First, convert 2 (3)/(8) to improper fraction. Use this rule: a (b)/(c)(ac+b)/(c). Your problem should look like: (2x8+3)/(8) ÷ 1(1)/(4).
Second, simplify 2 x 8 to get 16. Your problem should look like: (16+3)/(8) ÷ 1 (1)/(4).
Third, simplify 16 + 3 to get 19. Your problem should look like: (19)/(8) ÷ 1 (1)/(4).
Fourth, convert 1(1)/(4) to improper fraction. Use the same rule as earlier. Your problem should look like: (19)/(8) ÷ (4+1)/(4).
Fifth, simplify 4 + 1 to get 5. Your problem should look like: (19)/(8) ÷ (5)/(4).
Sixth, apply this rule: a ÷ (b)/(c) = a × (c)/(b). Your problem should look like: (19)/(8) × (4)/(5).
Seventh, apply this rule: (a)/(b) × (c)/(d)(ac)/(bd). Your problem should look like: (19x4)/(8x5).
Eighth, simplify 19 × 4 to get 76. Your problem should look like: (76)/(8x5).
Ninth, simplify 8 × 5 to get 40. Your problem should look like: (76)/(40).
Tenth, simplify. Your problem should look like: (19)/(10).
Eleventh, convert to mixed fraction. Your problem should look like: 1 (9)/(10) which is the answer.

Answer as mixed number form: 1(9)/(10).
Answer as exact form: (19)/(10).
Answer as decimal form: 1.9.


Answer 2
Answer:

The simplification of the given mixed number expression is equal to 1 9/10.

To perform the division of mixed numbers 2 3/8 ÷ 1 1/4, follow these steps:

Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions.

2 3/8 = (2 × 8 + 3) / 8 = 19 / 8

1 1/4 = (1 ×4 + 1) / 4 = 5 / 4

Take the reciprocal of the divisor (the second fraction) to turn the division into multiplication.

Reciprocal of 5 / 4 is 4 / 5.

Multiply the dividend (the first fraction) by the reciprocal of the divisor.

(19 / 8) × (4 / 5) = (19 × 4) / (8 × 5) = 76 / 40

Simplify the result if possible.

To simplify the fraction 76 / 40, divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF), which is 4.

76 ÷ 4 = 19

40 ÷ 4 = 10

The simplified fraction is 19/10.

Convert the improper fraction back to a mixed number (if needed).

19/10 can be written as 1 9/10.

Therefore , the answer  of the simplification to 2 3/8 ÷ 1 1/4 is 1 9/10.

Answers

2(8-x) = 16-2x (because there are 2 width lengths in the whole perimeter (circumference).
2x+24 - 16-2x =8 (the x's cancel each other out)
8/2 = 4 (because the length is in 2 parts so they are each 4)

5x divided by 6 = 20

Answers

We have such equation
(5x)/(6)=20          /*6 (multiply both sides by 6)
5x=20*6
5x=120           /:5   (divide both sides by 5)
x=24 - its the answer

The value of the variable "x" in expression "5x divided by 6 = 20" is 24.

To find the value of the variable "x" in the expression "5x divided by 6 = 20", we use algebraic-techniques.

To separate the variable "x," we multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the denominator of the fraction.

This cancels out the division on the left side, leaving us with 5x on the left side:

⇒ (5x divided by 6) × 6 = 20 × 6,

⇒ (5x/6) × 6 = 20 × 6,

Simplifying the equation:

⇒ 5x = 120

To solve for the variable "x," we divide both sides of equation "5x = 120" by 5:

⇒ (5x) / 5 = 120 / 5,

⇒ x = 24

Therefore, the required value of "x" is 24.

Is 16.45 equal to 16.454

Answers

no if it it was 16.450 then it would be equal to 16.45
No, because the values are different by 0.004.
However, 16.454 does round to 16.45 if that is what you mean.

Write an equation in slope intercept form for a line that goes through the point (-9,4) and is perpendicular to line Y=-3x-2

Answers

Answer:

y = (1/3)x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line perpendicular to the given line y = -3x - 2 would have to be the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line:

or, in other words,

the negative reciprocal of -3.  That would be +1/3.

Starting with the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line, we have:

y = mx + b.  

We substitute the coordinates of the given point, (-9,4), and the slope +1/3:

4 = (1/3)(-9) + b.

This simplifies to

4 = -3 + b, from which it can be easily seen that b = 7.

The desired line is y = (1/3)x + 7.

2b−15>21? How do I do this and what is the answer???

Answers

2b - 15 > 21

add 15  to both sides:

2b-15+15 > 21 + 15

2b > 36

Divide both sides by 2 :

2b/2 > 36/2

2b = 36

b = 36 / 2

b > 18

hope this helps!

2b - 15 > 21

2b > 21 + 15

2b > 36

b > 18
