What is a fraction?

A fraction is a part of the whole represented by a/b, where a and b are any integers

Given that, Ashley brought 7/8 gallons of lemonade to the party, and her friends drank 2/3 of it, therefore,

Her friend drank = 2/3of 7/8

                            =2/3 ×7/8

A Ferris wheel can accommodate 55 people in 25 minutes. How many people could ride the Ferris wheel in 3 hours. What was the rate per hour

Answers

The best way to find out how many people can be accommodated in 3 hours, is to convert this to minutes, and then divide by 25 (as this will show how many times it can be ridden in the three hour period). 3 hours is equal to 180 minutes. Therefore, 180/25 is equal to 7 (with a remainder of 5 minutes). As there can be 7 slots of 55 people, you have to multiply these together, and this gives you 385 people. You still have 5 minutes remaining, and the best way to do this is to find the highest common multiple of 55 and 25, which is 5, and divide both of these by 5. Meaning that in 5 minutes, there are 11 people. You then have to add this to 385, giving you 396.
In order to find the hourly rate, just multiply the 11 riders in 5 minutes by 12 (as there are 12 lots of 5 in 60), and this will give you 132 people.

396 people are able to ride the Ferris Wheel in three hours.
The rate of people per hour is 132.
Hope this helps :)

The image of a parallelogram is given. Use the translation (x,y) → (x+2, y-1) to find the coordinates of S. Files below
⬇️

Answers

so to do that, find the point of S then transform

in (x,y) form

we see that the point 'S' is 1 unit to the right and 2 units up therefor
the point is (1,2)
so we jsut apply the thingy translation to is
x=1
y=2
x+2=1+2=3
y-1=2-1=1
the new point is (3,1)

The mean of the values in a data set is a. If each of the values in the data setwere multiplied by 7, what would be the mean of the resulting data?
A. 7a
B. 6a
C. a
D. 8a

Answers

Answer:

Option A. 7a

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The mean of the data values is equal to the sum of the data values divided by the number of data values

Let

x ----> the sum of the data values

n ---> the number of data values

y ----> the mean of the data values

so

y=(x)/(n)

we have that

y=a

so

a=(x)/(n)

If each of the values in the data set  were multiplied by 7

we would have

The new mean is equal to

(7x)/(n)=7((x)/(n))=7a

Pedro bought lb of red sand and lb of brown sand to refill his sand box. Both types of sand cost $4.60 a pound. How much did Pedro spend on the sand? A. $29.85 B. $31.05 C. $33.05 D. $33.75

Answers

If we know that Pedro bought 1 (1)/(4) pounds of red sand, and 5 (1)/(2) pounds of brown sand, and they both cost $4.60, then we just have to add the individual amounts of sand, since they cost the same.

1 (1)/(4) + 5 (1)/(2) = 6 (3)/(4)

So Pedro bought 6 (3)/(4) lbs of sand overall. Now, we just need to multiply the cost per pound by the total amount of sand he bought.

6 (3)/(4) * 4.6 = 31.05

Pedro spent $31.05 on sand, which is answer choice B.
Hope that helped =)
b. $31.05
5.5 + 1.25 = 6.75
6.75 * $4.60 = $31.05
