Answer 1
Answer: To find a fraction of a fraction, what you have to do is multiply. You're looking for (3)/(4) of (2)/(3) so you're equation is going to be 

(3)/(4) × (2)/(3)  = 

To multiply fractions, you multiply straight across (numerator x numerator, denominator x denominator):
(3)/(4) × (2)/(3)  = (6)/(12) quart or (1)/(2) quart

This makes more sense when you draw a picture. First starting by drawing what you're taking a fraction of, which is (2)/(3). Then you split the entire whole into fourths to find what (3)/(4) is. See the attached picture. :)

Answer 2
Answer: She has 2/3 quart and only used 3/4 of it.

If she had used twice as much, you'd multiply by 2, but instead, she used only 3/4 of it, so you'll only need to multiply her amount by 3/4, like so:

2/3*3/4 = (2*3)/(3*4) = 6/12 = 1/2

Answer is: 1/2 quart

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that all of the ages are 7 apart so we don't need to mess with that.

Since Ed's age is 3/2 times Ted's age, we can make an equation.

Ted = t

Ed = e

e = 3/2t

Now we can just substitute and see if it checks out.

21 = 1.5 * 14

And since they are equal B is the answer.

Find the reciprocal of 4 and multiply.

\sf(1)/(8)*(1)/(4)

Multiply the numerators and denominators together:

\boxed{\sf(1)/(32)}
-1/8/-5/4=the numerator of the first value will be multiplied by the denominator of the second i.e 1*4 and similarly 8 will be multiplied by 5like this -1/8 * -4/5this will give 1/10 or 0.1 which is actually the right answe

Find the sum

2/8 + 3/9

Answers

at first find common denominator - is 72 so we need multiply first fraction by 9 and second fraction by 8
(2)/(8)+ (3)/(9)=(2*9)/(8*9)+ (3*8)/(9*8)=(18)/(72)+ (24)/(72)=   (42)/(72)= (6*7)/(6*12)= (7)/(12)

STEP Δ1Δ find the least common denominator/multiple of 8 and 9. 2/8= 18/72. 3/9= 24/72. Step 2 Add. 18+24= 42. Step 3 Simplify. 42/62= 21/36= 7/12. Once you reach 7/12, you can no longer simplify. So, your final answer is 7/12, or seven twelths (even though that not how you spell it). Hope this helps ;). Thank you and have a super awesome day.

What is a 33.33% increase followed by a 50% decrease?

Answers

33.33-50=-16.67%
hope that helped :)
If you let x = the original amount, then an increase of 33.33% would be represented by

x + (x × 33.33%)

Then if there was a decrease of 50%, you would now have

[x + (x ×33.33%)] × 50%

rewrite with decimal instead of %

[x + (x × .3333)] ÷ 2

The brackets and parentheses are important to tell the order in which to proceed.
