Marcus baked a loaf of banana bread for a party. he cut the loaf into equal size pieces.At the end of the party, there were 6 pieces left. Explain how you can find the number of pieces in the whole loaf if Marcus told you that 1/3 of the loaf was left.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Marcus  cut the loaf into equal size pieces.

At the end of the party, there were 6 pieces left.

Marcus told you that 1/3 of the loaf was left.

Let the number of pieces in whole loaf be x

Since we are given that  1/3 of the loaf was left.

So, loaf left = (1)/(3) x

We are also given that there were 6 pieces left.

So, (1)/(3) x=6

x=6 * 3

x=18

Thus the number of pieces in whole loaf is 18.

Answer 2
Answer: 6×3 because 6 is one third of the whole loaf and 6×3 are 18.

You need to add both distances

|-9| + 3 = 9 + 3 = 12  

half
12 : 2 = 6


Now , we measure the distance towards the center section
1 way
-9 + 6 = -3
2 way
3 - 6 = -3

Answere : -3

in a cylinder cup, AB=5cm, BC= 12cm. AD is a straw that passes point A and C and CD= 2cm. the length of the straw is:

Answers

Answer:

17.13 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given scenario, we have a cylinder cup with points A, B, and C, and a straw AD that passes through points A and C. The measurements are as follows:

AB = 5 cm

BC = 12 cm

CD = 2 cm

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the straw AD. The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

In this case, AD is the hypotenuse, and AC and CD are the other two sides. We can write the Pythagorean theorem equation as:

AD^2 = AC^2 + CD^2

Given that AC is the sum of AB and BC:

AC = AB + BC

AC = 5 cm + 12 cm

AC = 17 cm

Now we can substitute the values into the Pythagorean theorem equation:

AD^2 = 17^2 + 2^2

AD^2 = 289 + 4

AD^2 = 293

Taking the square root of both sides to solve for AD:

AD = √293

AD ≈ 17.13 cm

So, the length of the straw AD is approximately 17.13 cm.

Answer:

17.13 cm.
