How did you get c=1/5 when you have 5c=2/3 divided by 2/3?
5c = (2/3) / (2/3)
5c = (2/3) * (3/2)
5c = 6/6
c = (6/6) / 5
c = 6/6) * (1/5)
c = 6/30 = 1/5
Thanks Ms. Sue, I also have one more question. What is 1/2= w/4?
You're welcome, Anna.
1/2 = w/4
4 * (1/2) = w
? = w
Is it 4/1*(1/2)=2/1=2?
Right!
Thanks again!
You're welcome.
rectangle abcd has a perimeter of 62.if the length of ad is 14 what is the area of abcd?
To solve the equation 5c = (2/3) ÷ (2/3), we need to follow these steps:
Step 1: Simplify the expression on the right side of the equation.
The expression (2/3) ÷ (2/3) can be simplified by multiplying the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator:
(2/3) × (3/2) = 6/6 = 1
Step 2: Substitute the simplified expression back into the equation.
5c = 1
Step 3: Solve for c.
To isolate c, we divide both sides of the equation by 5:
(5c) ÷ 5 = 1 ÷ 5
c = 1/5
So, the solution to the equation 5c = (2/3) ÷ (2/3) is c = 1/5.
