vie wants to make friendship bracelets to sell she has yellow blue and orange beads she wants each bracelet to have a ratio of 3/10 blue and 1/10 yellow what would be the remaining ratio of orange beads for each bracelet? Rember to simplify your ratio fraction
To find the remaining ratio of orange beads, we need to determine the ratio of blue, yellow, and orange beads in each bracelet.
Given that the ratio of blue beads to the total number of beads is 3/10, and the ratio of yellow beads to the total number of beads is 1/10, we can add these ratios together:
3/10 + 1/10 = 4/10 = 2/5
Therefore, the ratio of blue and yellow beads combined is 2/5.
Since the total ratio of beads in each bracelet must add up to 1 (or 10/10), we can subtract the ratio of blue and yellow beads combined from 1, or 10/10.
10/10 - 2/5 = 10/10 * 5/5 - 2/5 = 50/50 - 2/5 = 48/50
To simplify the ratio, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD), which is 2 in this case:
48/50 divided by 2/2 = 24/25
Therefore, the remaining simplified ratio of orange beads in each bracelet is 24/25.
aa group of people in a city decide to measure the total distance of a walking path and put up distance markers for the people who walk on one particular day they put up markers on 7/8 of a mile of the way the next day they put up markers on anotherr 1/2 of a mile what is the total distance they completed
To find the total distance completed, we need to add the distances of the two days together.
The first day, they put up markers on 7/8 of a mile.
The second day, they put up markers on 1/2 of a mile.
To add the fractions, we need to find a common denominator. In this case, the least common multiple (LCM) of 8 and 2 is 8.
Converting the fractions to have the common denominator of 8:
7/8 = (7/8) * (1/1) = 7/8
1/2 = (1/2) * (4/4) = 4/8
Now we can add the fractions:
7/8 + 4/8 = 11/8
However, 11/8 is an improper fraction, which can be simplified.
To simplify, we can divide the numerator (11) by the denominator (8):
11 ÷ 8 = 1 remainder 3
So, the simplified fraction is:
1 3/8
Therefore, the total distance they completed is 1 3/8 miles.
the value of the sum 1/3?
The sum 1/3 is a fraction, so it has a numerical value. The numerical value of 1/3 is approximately 0.3333.
To calculate the decimal value of 1/3, you can divide 1 by 3:
1 ÷ 3 = 0.3333 (rounded to four decimal places)
Therefore, the value of the sum 1/3 is approximately 0.3333.
the value of the sum 2 1/5 1 3/5?
To find the value of the sum 2 1/5 + 1 3/5, we need to convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions and then add them together.
2 1/5 can be written as (2 * 5 + 1)/5 = 11/5
1 3/5 can be written as (1 * 5 + 3)/5 = 8/5
Now we can add the fractions:
11/5 + 8/5 = (11 + 8)/5 = 19/5
Therefore, the value of the sum 2 1/5 + 1 3/5 is 19/5.
9 1/3 - 2 2/3 what is the correct result
To subtract 2 2/3 from 9 1/3, we need to convert both mixed numbers to improper fractions.
9 1/3 can be written as (9 * 3 + 1)/3 = 28/3
2 2/3 can be written as (2 * 3 + 2)/3 = 8/3
Now we can subtract the fractions:
28/3 - 8/3 = (28 - 8)/3 = 20/3
Therefore, the correct result of 9 1/3 - 2 2/3 is 20/3 or 6 2/3.
