3/7 divided by 1/2

To divide two fractions, you can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

The reciprocal of a fraction is found by flipping the numerator and denominator.

In this case, the reciprocal of 1/2 is 2/1.

So, to divide 3/7 by 1/2, we can multiply 3/7 by 2/1:

(3/7) * (2/1)

= (3 * 2) / (7 * 1)

= 6/7

To simplify the expression (3/4) divided by (2/5), we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction:

(3/4) * (5/2)

Now, we can simplify:

(3 * 5) / (4 * 2)

= 15/8

Therefore, the simplified expression is 15/8.

To simplify the expression 4√9, we need to evaluate the square root of 9, which is 3.

Now, we can rewrite the expression as:

4 * 3 = 12

Therefore, the simplified expression is 12.

Question

A gardener has a border of flowers around a rectangular vegetable garden. The vegetable garden is 5 ft x 2 ft, and the flower border has a uniform width of 1 ft (see the diagram below). What is the area of the flower garden only?

The image of a smaller rectangle drawn in the interior of a larger rectangle is shown. The smaller rectangle has dimensions of 5 feet by 2 feet. The larger rectangle has dimensions of 7 feet by 4 feet.

28 ft2

To find the area of the flower garden, we need to calculate the area of the larger rectangle and subtract the area of the vegetable garden.

The larger rectangle has dimensions of 7 feet by 4 feet, so its area is:

7 ft * 4 ft = 28 ft^2

The vegetable garden has dimensions of 5 feet by 2 feet, so its area is:

5 ft * 2 ft = 10 ft^2

To find the area of the flower garden, we subtract the area of the vegetable garden from the area of the larger rectangle:

28 ft^2 - 10 ft^2 = 18 ft^2

Therefore, the area of the flower garden is 18 ft^2.
