9 answers

Let's assume the length of the Beginner's Trail is x.
According to the given information, the Medium Trail is 1.2 times as long as the Beginner's Trail. Therefore, the length of the Medium Trail is 1.2x.
Similarly, the Advanced Trail is 3.6 times as long as the Medium Trail. Therefore, the length of the Advanced Trail is 3.6 * 1.2x = 4.32x.
Therefore, the Advanced Trail is 4.32 times as long as the Beginner's Trail.
There are 78

Ms. Johnson used 12 cups of sugar.
There are 7/8
cups of sugar in a canister in the kitchen. Ms. Johnson used 1/2
of the sugar when she was preparing dessert for her daughter's birthday cake. How much sugar did she use?(1 point)
To find out how much sugar Ms. Johnson used, we need to calculate 1/2 * 7/8.

When we multiply fractions, we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.

1/2 * 7/8 = (1 * 7) / (2 * 8) = 7/16.

Therefore, Ms. Johnson used 7/16 cups of sugar.
