Emma spent 35 * 1.5 = 52.5 minutes studying.
Since we cannot have half minutes, we round up to the nearest whole number.
Therefore, Emma spent 53 minutes studying.

The middle school band has 502 * 2.9 = 1455.8 members.
Since we cannot have a fraction of a member, we round up to the nearest whole number.
Therefore, there are about 1456 members in the middle school band.

If 6 members share 3/4 of a cake equally, we need to divide 3/4 by 6.
3/4 divided by 6 is equal to (3/4) * (1/6) = 3/24 = 1/8.
Therefore, each member of the team will get 1/8 of the cake.
4. Twenty-four packets of sheet music are in a folder. If the chorus students decide to share of the packets, how many did they share?(1 point)
12 packets
18 packets
8 packets
9 packets
To find out how many packets the chorus students shared, we need to calculate 1/4 of 24.
1/4 of 24 is equal to (1/4) * 24 = 6.
Therefore, the chorus students shared 6 packets.

To find out what fraction of the assignment Celeste's mom checked, we need to calculate (2/3) * (5/6).
(2/3) * (5/6) is equal to (2 * 5) / (3 * 6) = 10/18 = 5/9.
Therefore, Celeste's mom checked 5/9 of the assignment.
