To find out how many minutes Emma spent studying, we need to multiply Sarah's study time by 1 1/2.
Sarah spent 35 1/2 minutes studying.
1 1/2 times 35 1/2 can be calculated as:
(3/2) * (71/2) = 213/4 = 53 1/4 minutes.
Therefore, Emma spent 53 1/4 minutes studying.

To find out how many members are in the middle school band, we need to multiply the number of members in the high school band by 2/9.
The high school band has 502 members.
(2/9) * 502 = 111.33.
Rounded to the nearest whole number, there are about 112 members in the middle school band.
Therefore, the correct answer is 112.
Q.3
How much cake will each member of the team get if 6 members share 3/4
of a cake equally?(1 point)
To find out how much cake each member of the team will get, we need to divide the amount of cake by the number of members.
The team is made up of 6 members.
They are sharing 3/4 of a cake.
To divide the cake equally among the members, we need to divide 3/4 by 6.
(3/4) ÷ 6 = 3/4 × 1/6 = 3/24 = 1/8.
Each member of the team will get 1/8 of a cake.
Therefore, each member of the team will get 1/8 of a cake.
Twenty-four packets of sheet music are in a folder. If the chorus students decide to share 38
of the packets, how many did they share?
The chorus students decided to share 38 of the packets.
Therefore, they shared a total of 38 packets.
sorry,
Twenty-four packets of sheet music are in a folder. If the chorus students decide to share 3/8
of the packets, how many did they share?
If there are 24 packets of sheet music in the folder and the chorus students decide to share 3/8 of the packets, we need to calculate 3/8 of 24.
To find 3/8 of 24, we multiply 3/8 by 24:
(3/8) * 24 = (3 * 24) / 8 = 72 / 8 = 9.
Therefore, the chorus students shared 9 packets of sheet music.
