I am having troubles with the first part that I forgot to type... How many parts was the group divided? Would that be 15 parts or 8 parts?

Nope.

3/8 would indicate that the group is divided into 8 parts. Three of those eight parts could climb the hill.

thank you, that makes it a lot easier.

You're welcome.

This is a sucky website i just want the answers pls somebody give the answers.

To find the answers to these questions, we need to use some basic arithmetic.

1. How many engines were in each part?
To determine how many engines were in each part, we divide the total number of engines by the fraction of engines that could climb the hill. So, if 3/8 of the 40 engines could climb the hill, we can calculate:
(3/8) * 40 = 120/8 = 15

Therefore, there were 15 engines in each part.

2. How many parts could climb the hill?
To determine the number of parts that could climb the hill, we divide the total number of engines by the number of engines in each part. In this case:
40 / 15 = 2 remainder 10

So, 2 parts could climb the hill.

3. How many engines could climb the hill?
We already know that 3/8 of the engines could climb the hill, and we can now calculate the total:
(3/8) * 40 = 120/8 = 15

Therefore, 15 engines could climb the hill.

4. How many parts could not climb the hill?
To determine the number of parts that could not climb the hill, we subtract the number of parts that could climb the hill from the total number of parts:
Total parts - Parts that could climb the hill = Parts that could not climb the hill
So, the calculation is:
40/15 - 2 = 2 remainder 10

Therefore, 2 parts could not climb the hill.

5. How many engines could not climb the hill?
To determine the number of engines that could not climb the hill, we multiply the number of parts that couldn't climb the hill by the number of engines in each part, and then we add the remainder (since the calculation resulted in a remainder):
(2 * 15) + 10 = 35

Therefore, 35 engines could not climb the hill.

If it is 15 parts, I figured 40 engines divided by 15 parts which equals 2 3/8. 2 3/8 engines in each part.

2 3/8 * 3 (parts that could climb the hill) = 7 1/8 parts that could climb the hill

Am I heading in the right direction?
