please help
In cases where students dump an entire assignment or a whole test,
it is expected that you show your choices and indicate where your problem is.
Surely you don't just expect somebody to do your work for you, do you?
my choices are c, d, b, b, a in order 1 to 5
I agree with Meow.
WHAT???!! WHO IS MEOW?? AND WHAT IS "SXITY FIFTH GRADE"???
1. To find the product of fractions, multiply the numerators together and multiply the denominators together. Then simplify the result:
2/5 * 3/7
(2 * 3) / (5 * 7)
6/35
So, the product in simplest form is C. 6/35.
2. Similarly, to find the product of fractions:
9/10 * 5/7
(9 * 5) / (10 * 7)
45/70
To simplify further, divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 5:
9/14
So, the product in simplest form is B. 9/14.
3. To find how much of an acre Jenny has mowed, multiply the fraction of the lawn mowed (1/2) by the total area of the lawn (1/3 of an acre):
1/2 * 1/3
1/6
So, Jenny has mowed 1/6 of an acre. The answer is B. 1/6.
4. To find the fraction of water leaked out of the bucket, multiply the fraction of the remaining water (1/2) by the initial capacity (3/4):
1/2 * 3/4
3/8
So, 3/8 of the water leaked out of the bucket. The answer is C. 3/8.
5. To find how far Mike ran before pulling his hamstring, subtract the fraction of the way he completed (2/3) from the total distance (78 miles):
78 - (2/3) * 78
(78 - 52) / 3
26 / 3
So, Mike ran 26/3 miles before pulling his hamstring. The answer is not listed among the options provided, but it is approximately 8 2/3 miles.
