Where is the error in Ming's work? (1 point) Responses When adding, Ming accidentally carried a 1 when she was not supposed to. The correct answer is 403. When adding, Ming accidentally carried a 1 when she was not supposed to. The correct answer is 403. Ming initially added instead of multiplying 59 and 16. Ming initially added instead of multiplying 59 and 16. The second number in the addition part of the problem should be 590, because the 1 in 16 represents 10. The second number in the addition part of the problem should be 590, because the 1 in 16 represents 10. No mistakes, Ming did this problem correctly.

Answer 1

The error in Ming's work is that she initially added instead of multiplying 59 and 16. The correct multiplication of 59 and 16 should give a total that she did not calculate properly.

The correct calculation of 59 multiplied by 16 is:

59 x 16 = 944

So the range of errors in Ming's work stemmed from either miscalculating or misunderstanding the multiplication process. Therefore, the most accurate response is:

Ming initially added instead of multiplying 59 and 16.

Answer 2

293 ÷ 9

Answer 3

To divide 293 by 9, you can perform the division as follows:

1. Calculate how many times 9 goes into 29 (the first two digits of 293). 9 goes into 29 three times (since 9 x 3 = 27).
2. Subtract 27 from 29, which leaves you with 2.
3. Bring down the last digit (3) from 293, making it 23.
4. Now divide 23 by 9. 9 goes into 23 two times (since 9 x 2 = 18).
5. Subtract 18 from 23, which leaves you with 5.

So, 293 ÷ 9 = 32 with a remainder of 5.

Therefore, you can express the result as:

• 32 R5 (32 remainder 5)
• Or as a decimal: \( 32 + \frac{5}{9} \approx 32.56 \) (rounded).

So, the final answer is:

• 32 R5
• Or approximately 32.56.

Answer 4

There are 3 feet in 1 yard. Which expressions describe how many feet are in 6 yards? Check the THREE that apply. (3 points) Responses 6 + 3 6 + 3 6 + 6 + 6 6 + 6 + 6 3 x 6 3 x 6 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 6 ÷÷ 3

Answer 5

To find out how many feet are in 6 yards, we can use the fact that there are 3 feet in 1 yard. Therefore:

\[ 6 \text{ yards} \times 3 \text{ feet/yard} = 18 \text{ feet} \]

We need to identify which of the given expressions correctly represent this calculation.

Here are the viable options:

1. 6 + 6 + 6: This equals 18, which is correct.
2. 3 x 6: This equals 18 (since 3 feet per yard multiplied by 6 yards equals 18), which is correct.
3. 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3: This also equals 18 (adding up the 3 feet for each of the 6 yards), which is correct.

The incorrect expressions are:

• 6 + 3: This equals 9, which is incorrect.
• 6 ÷ 3: This equals 2, which is incorrect.

Thus, the three expressions that correctly describe how many feet are in 6 yards are:

• 6 + 6 + 6
• 3 x 6
• 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3

Answer 6

A sandwich shop offers 4 types of bread for their sandwiches: white, wheat, multigrain, and pita. The sandwich shop produces 364 sandwiches each day. If the same number of sandwiches is produced on each type of bread, how many pita sandwiches are made per day? NOTE: Please enter strictly numbers in the answer box to be scored correctly.

Answer 7

To find out how many pita sandwiches are made per day, divide the total number of sandwiches by the number of types of bread.

The sandwich shop offers 4 types of bread and produces 364 sandwiches each day.

So, the calculation is:

\[ \frac{364 \text{ sandwiches}}{4 \text{ types of bread}} = 91 \text{ sandwiches per type of bread} \]

Thus, the number of pita sandwiches made per day is 91.

Answer 8

What is the result of the division problem 305 ÷ 7?

Answer 9

To divide 305 by 7:

1. Calculate how many times 7 goes into 30 (the first two digits of 305). 7 goes into 30 four times (since \(7 \times 4 = 28\)).
2. Subtract 28 from 30, which leaves you with 2.
3. Bring down the last digit (5) from 305, making it 25.
4. Now divide 25 by 7. 7 goes into 25 three times (since \(7 \times 3 = 21\)).
5. Subtract 21 from 25, which leaves you with 4.

So, \(305 \div 7 = 43\) with a remainder of 4.

Therefore, you can express the result as:

• 43 R4 (43 remainder 4)
• Or as a decimal: \(43 + \frac{4}{7} \approx 43.57\) (rounded).

So, the final answer is:

• 43 R4
• Or approximately 43.57.
