None of your 8 answers were correct.
1. I did this in the last post.
2. No. Thanks to Reiny from 2012
(4/5) / (7/15)
= (4/5)(15/7)
= 12/7
3, No. Divide miles by minutes.
4. No. 1 foot = 12 inches
Do 3 and 4. I'll check them before I finish checking the rest of your original answers.
4, B is right!!!
Reiny has already checked your other answers and found them wrong.
5. Doesn't make sense. km? miles?
6, To find the proportion, multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number. For example: 4/5 and 16/24
4 * 4 = 16
4 * 5 = 20 Nope -- not a proportion
More in a few minutes. . . .
8. This is not a complete problem. You're missing something.
