Kim made three quiches for a party: cheese, spinach, and mushroom. The cheese quiche was cut into 8 equal pieces, the spinach quiche was cut into 16 equal pieces, and the mushroom quiche was cut into 4 equal pieces. At the party, peaople ate 5 pieces of the cheese, 9 pieces of the spinach, and 2 pieces of the mushroom. Which quiche did people eat the most of? Identify the fractions in numerical order from greatest to least.
To find out which quiche people ate the most of, we can calculate the total number of pieces eaten for each quiche.
For the cheese quiche, 5 pieces were eaten.
For the spinach quiche, 9 pieces were eaten.
For the mushroom quiche, 2 pieces were eaten.
Now, let's express these numbers as fractions using the total number of pieces each quiche was originally cut into.
For the cheese quiche: 5/8
For the spinach quiche: 9/16
For the mushroom quiche: 2/4 (which can be simplified to 1/2)
Now, let's reorder these fractions from greatest to least:
9/16 > 5/8 > 1/2
So, people ate the most pieces of the spinach quiche, followed by the cheese quiche, and then the mushroom quiche.
Fernando spent 20$ of his 50$ weekly allowance on snacks. What percent of his weekly allowance did he spend on snacks?
()%
To find out what percent of his weekly allowance Fernando spent on snacks, we can use the following formula:
Percent = (Amount spent / Total allowance) * 100
In this case, Fernando spent $20 on snacks out of his total weekly allowance of $50.
Percent = (20 / 50) * 100 = 40%
Therefore, Fernando spent 40% of his weekly allowance on snacks.
What is the fractional equivalent of 2.125?
To find the fractional equivalent of 2.125, we can follow these steps:
Step 1: Subtract the whole number part from the decimal.
2.125 - 2 = 0.125
Step 2: Convert the decimal to a fraction by putting the decimal part over 1.
0.125 = 125/1000
Step 3: Simplify the fraction.
125/1000 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 125.
125/1000 = 1/8
Therefore, the fractional equivalent of 2.125 is 1/8.
(* means whole number, / means fractions, and . means decimal. & means this is the answer I think is right.) no you have to choose the answer from these options: 2* 1/8. 2* 1/6. *2 3/8. 1* 2/8.
Apologies for misunderstanding your request. To find the fractional equivalent of 2.125 from the given options, we need to convert the decimal portion, 0.125, to a fraction.
0.125 can be written as 1/8.
Now, we combine the whole number part, 2, with the fraction:
2 1/8
Therefore, the correct option is 2 1/8.
Mary ate 4* 1/2 pears and Carmie ate 7* 2/4 pears. If they finished all the pears in a box, how many pears were in the box? #11* #12* #11* 1/4 #11* 3/6
(* means whole number, / means fractions, and . means decimal. & means this is the answer I think is right. # means answer option)
To find out how many pears were in the box, we need to add the number of pears Mary ate and the number of pears Carmie ate.
Mary ate 4 1/2 pears, which can be written as 4 + 1/2 = 4 2/2.
Carmie ate 7 2/4 pears, which can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2: 7/2 = 14/4.
Now we can add the numbers: 4 2/2 + 7 2/4 = 11 4/4.
Since 4/4 is equivalent to one whole pear, we can simplify the expression: 11 4/4 = 11 1/4.
Therefore, there were 11 1/4 pears in the box.
The correct option is #11 1/4.
