a group of students attend a math club half the students are boys and 4/9 of the boys have brown eyes what fraction of the group are boys with brown eyes

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: from the whole group half the club are boys. 
fraction of boys from the whole class = 1/2
from this fraction, 4/9th of the boys have brown eyes
therefore fraction of boys who have brown eyes 
= 4/9 of 1/2
the 'of' function is used to multiply 
(4)/(9) *  (1)/(2)
when multiplying fractions numerators are multiplied by numerators and denominators multiplied by denominators
(4*1)/(9*2) =  (4)/(18)
4/18 can be simplified by dividing the whole number by a common number
4/18 divided by 2 = 2/9
the answer is 2/9
2/9 of the club are boys with brown eyes


Answer 2
Answer: 4/9 * 1/2 = 4/18 = 2/9

So, the boys with brown eyes are 2/9 of all the students that attend the math club

Carsonwalked 6.5 miles in 2 hours. How long will it take him to walk 16.5 miles at the same speed?

Answers

Setting up a proportion will aid in solving this problem.

6.5 miles / 2 hours = 16.5 miles / x
6.5x = 33
6.5x / 6.5 = 33 / 6.5
x = 5.0769....

It will take Carson approximately 5 hours to walk 16.5 miles.

What is the area of this rectangle in square yards?

Answers

In the comment of the other answer, you said that the rectangle is 24 x 18 ft.

First, we have to find out how many square feet that is, and then we can convert it to square yards.

The area of a rectangle is the length multiplied by the width.

A = l x w
A = 24 x 18
A = 432 square feet

To find out how many square yards that is, we divide it by 3, because 1 yard is 3 feet.

432 ÷ 3 = 144

The area of a 24x18ft rectangle is 144 square yards.
