Use the properties of operations and rules for multiplying and dividing to solve:
(−3/5)×(5/16)×(7/12)÷(−3/16)×(−5/7)
solve pls
To solve the expression, let's apply the properties of operations and rules for multiplying and dividing:
(−3/5)×(5/16)×(7/12)÷(−3/16)×(−5/7)
First, let's multiply the numerator of the first fraction with the numerator of the second fraction, and the denominator of the first fraction with the denominator of the second fraction:
= (−3×5)/(5×16) × (7/12) ÷ (−3/16) × (−5/7)
Simplifying this multiplication gives:
= (−15)/(80) × (7/12) ÷ (−3/16) × (−5/7)
Next, let's multiply the numerator of the third fraction with the numerator of the fourth fraction, and the denominator of the third fraction with the denominator of the fourth fraction:
= (−15)/(80) × (7/12) ÷ (−3/16) × (5/7)
Multiplying the fractions from left to right and simplifying:
= (−15 * 7)/(80 * 12) ÷ (−3/16 * 5/7)
= (−105)/(960) ÷ (−15/112)
Now, to divide fractions, we multiply by the reciprocal of the divisor. Therefore, let's multiply by the reciprocal of (−15/112):
= (−105/960) × (112/−15)
Multiplying the numerators and denominators:
= (−105 * 112)/(960 * −15)
Simplifying:
= −11,760/−14,400
Since the numerator and denominator have a common factor of 240:
= −49/60
Therefore, the solution to the expression is −49/60.
wrongg'
Apologies for the mistake. Let's solve it again:
To solve the expression:
(-3/5) × (5/16) × (7/12) ÷ (-3/16) × (-5/7)
First, let's simplify the multiplication of the fractions from left to right, and then divide from left to right:
= (-3 × 5 × 7) / (5 × 16 × 12) ÷ (-3/16) × (-5/7)
= (-105) / (960) ÷ (-3/16) × (-5/7)
Next, to divide fractions, we multiply by the reciprocal of the divisor:
= (-105/960) × (16/-3) × (-5/7)
Multiplying the numerators and denominators:
= (-105 × 16 × -5) / (960 × -3 × 7)
= (8400) / (-20160)
Since the numerator and denominator have a common factor of 840:
= 1 / (-24)
= -1/24
Therefore, the solution to the expression is -1/24.
STILL WRONG
Apologies for the repeated errors. Let's try solving it again:
To solve the expression:
(-3/5) × (5/16) × (7/12) ÷ (-3/16) × (-5/7)
First, let's simplify the multiplication of the fractions from left to right:
=(-3×5×7)/(5×16×12)÷(-3/16)×(-5/7)
=(-3×7)/(16×12)÷(-3/16)×(-5/7)
=(-21)/(16×12)÷(-3/16)×(-5/7)
=(-21)/(192)÷(-3/16)×(-5/7)
Next, to divide fractions, we multiply by the reciprocal of the divisor:
=(-21)/(192)×(16/3)×(-5/7)
=(-21×16×(-5))/(192×3×7)
=(1680)/(4032)
At this point, we can simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which in this case is 336:
=(1680/336)/(4032/336)
= 5/12
Therefore, the solution to the expression is 5/12.
NOPE
Apologies for the continued errors. Let's solve it again:
To solve the expression:
(-3/5) × (5/16) × (7/12) ÷ (-3/16) × (-5/7)
First, let's simplify the multiplication of the fractions from left to right:
= (-3/5) × (5/16) × (7/12)
Next, let's multiply the numerators together and the denominators together:
= (-3 × 5 × 7) / (5 × 16 × 12)
= (-105) / (960)
Now, let's simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which in this case is 15:
= (-105 / 15) / (960 / 15)
= (-7/1) / (64/1)
Since dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal, we can rewrite the expression as:
= (-7/1) × (1/64)
Multiplying the numerators and denominators:
= (-7 × 1) / (1 × 64)
= -7 / 64
Therefore, the solution to the expression is -7/64.

Apologies for the repeated errors. Let's solve it again:
To solve the expression:
(-3/5) × (5/16) × (7/12) ÷ (-3/16) × (-5/7)
First, let's simplify the multiplication of the fractions from left to right:
=(-3/5) × (5/16) × (7/12)
=(-3×5×7)/(5×16×12)
=(-3×7)/(16×12)
=(-21)/(192)
Now, let's simplify the expression by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 3:
=(-21/3)/(192/3)
= -7/64
Therefore, the solution to the expression is -7/64.
How many ounces are in 1/2 of 1/5 of a 10-ounce block of cheese?
To find the number of ounces in 1/2 of 1/5 of a 10-ounce block of cheese, we can break it down into steps:
1. 1/5 of a 10-ounce block of cheese:
This can be calculated by multiplying 10 by 1/5:
10 * 1/5 = 10/5 = 2 ounces
2. 1/2 of 2 ounces:
Now, we need to find half of 2 ounces. This can be calculated by multiplying 2 by 1/2:
2 * 1/2 = 2/2 = 1 ounce
Therefore, 1/2 of 1/5 of a 10-ounce block of cheese is 1 ounce.
A group of 9 people won 15 of a $4,500 prize. How much money did each person in the group win?
To find out how much money each person in the group won, we need to divide the total amount won by the number of people in the group.
The total amount won by the group is $4,500, and there are 9 people in the group.
To find out how much each person won, we divide $4,500 by 9:
$4,500 / 9 = $500
Therefore, each person in the group won $500.
NO
I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct it.
To find out how much money each person in the group won, we divide the total amount won by the number of people in the group:
Amount won per person = Total amount won / Number of people
Amount won per person = $4,500 / 9
Amount won per person = $500
Therefore, each person in the group won $500.
A group of 9 people won 1/5 of a $4,500 prize. How much money did each person in the group win?
To find out how much money each person in the group won, we need to divide the total amount won by the number of people in the group.
The total amount won is 1/5 of a $4,500 prize.
To calculate 1/5 of $4,500, we multiply the total amount by 1/5:
(1/5) * $4,500 = $900
Therefore, each person in the group won $900.
