To answer these questions, we need to perform the necessary calculations:
1. Emma spent 112 times the amount Sarah spent studying, so Emma spent 112 * 3512 = 393,344 minutes studying.
2. The middle school band has 29 times fewer members than the high school band, so the middle school band has 502 / 29 = 17.31 members. Since we can't have a fraction of a band member, we can round that to 17 members.
3. If 6 members share 34 of a cake equally, each member will get 34 / 6 = 5.67 of a cake. Again, we can't have a fraction of a cake, so we can round that to each member getting 5 pieces of cake.
4. If there are 24 packets of sheet music in a folder and the chorus students decide to share 38 of them, they will share 38 packets.
5. If Celeste completed 56 of her science problems and her mom checked 23 of the assignment, her mom checked 23 / 56 = 0.41 or 41% of the assignment.
6. If Paige decided to paint 45 of the rooms in her home last year and she completed 23 rooms, she painted 23 / 45 = 0.51 or 51% of her home last year.
QUESTION NUMER 1.
how many minutes and hours did she spend
To convert the number of minutes into hours and minutes, we can divide the total number of minutes by 60.
Sarah spent 3512 minutes studying.
Dividing 3512 by 60, we get 58 hours and 32 minutes.
Therefore, Sarah spent 58 hours and 32 minutes studying.
1. Yesterday, Sarah spent 35 1/2
minutes studying for a test. Emma spent 1 1/2
times that amount studying for a different test. How many minutes did Emma spend studying?(1 point)

To find out how many minutes Emma spent studying, we need to calculate 1 1/2 times the amount Sarah spent.
Sarah spent 35 1/2 minutes studying.
To find 1 1/2 times that amount, we multiply 35 1/2 by 1 1/2.
35 1/2 * 1 1/2 = 53 1/4
Therefore, Emma spent 53 1/4 minutes studying.
2. A middle school band as 2/9
as many band members as the high school band. The high school band has 502 members. About how many members are in the middle school band?(1 point)

To find out how many members are in the middle school band, we need to calculate the fraction of the high school band's members that represents the middle school band.
The middle school band has 2/9 as many members as the high school band, which has 502 members.
To find the number of members in the middle school band, we calculate 2/9 * 502.
(2/9) * 502 = 111.56
Therefore, there are approximately 112 members in the middle school band.

To find out how much cake each member of the team will get, we need to divide the total amount of cake (3/4) by the number of members (6).
To divide a fraction by a whole number, we multiply the fraction by the reciprocal of the whole number.
(3/4) ÷ 6 = (3/4) * (1/6) = 3/24 = 1/8
Therefore, each member of the team will get 1/8 of the cake.

of the packets, how many did they share?(1 point)
