To find the ratio that is equivalent to 15/48, you need to simplify the fraction.

The greatest common divisor of 15 and 48 is 3. Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 3 gives us:

15 ÷ 3 = 5
48 ÷ 3 = 16

So, the simplified form of 15/48 is 5/16.

Therefore, the ratio that is equivalent to 15/48 is 5/16.

To find the unit rate of miles per gallon, you need to divide the number of miles by the number of gallons.

Lucy can drive 270 miles on a full tank of 18 gallons.

So, the unit rate of miles per gallon is:
270 miles ÷ 18 gallons = 15 miles per gallon.

Therefore, the unit rate of miles per gallon that Lucy gets is 15 miles per gallon.

To divide fractions, you need to multiply the first fraction (the dividend) by the reciprocal of the second fraction (the divisor).

Reciprocal of 2/5 = 5/2.

So, the division 9/10 ÷ 2/5 can be rewritten as 9/10 x 5/2.

Multiplying the numerators gives us:
9 x 5 = 45

Multiplying the denominators gives us:
10 x 2 = 20

So, 9/10 ÷ 2/5 = 45/20.

To simplify this fraction, we need to divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 5.

Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 5 gives us:
45 ÷ 5 = 9
20 ÷ 5 = 4

So, 9/10 ÷ 2/5 simplifies to 9/4.

Therefore, 9/10 ÷ 2/5 = 9/4.
Zya wants to paint her bedroom wall. If she completes 2/5 of the wall in 1/2 hour, how long will it take her to paint the whole wall?

To determine how long it will take Zya to paint the whole wall, we can calculate the unit rate of how much of the wall she can paint per hour.

If Zya completes 2/5 of the wall in 1/2 hour, we can find out how much of the wall she can paint in 1 hour by multiplying 2/5 by 2 (since there are 2 halves in 1 hour):

(2/5) x 2 = 4/5 of the wall per hour

Therefore, Zya can paint 4/5 of the wall in one hour.

To find out how long it will take her to paint the whole wall, we need to divide the whole wall (1 whole) by the rate of painting per hour (4/5):

1 whole wall ÷ (4/5 of the wall per hour) = 1 ÷ (4/5) = 5/4 = 1 1/4 hours

Therefore, it will take Zya 1 1/4 hours to paint the whole wall.

To find how long it will take Zya to paint the whole wall, we can calculate the unit rate of 2/5 of the wall per time period.

If Zya completes 2/5 of the wall in 1/2 hour, we need to find the reciprocal of 2/5. The reciprocal of a fraction is found by flipping the numerator and denominator.

The reciprocal of 2/5 is 5/2.

To calculate the time it will take to paint the whole wall, we can multiply 1/2 hour by the reciprocal of 2/5:

1/2 hour * 5/2 = (1 * 5) / (2 * 2) = 5/4 = 1 1/4 hours.

Therefore, it will take Zya 1 1/4 hours to paint the whole wall.

The answer is:

Val is planning to make fruit punch for his birthday sleepover. He needs to add 2 scoops of fruit punch mix for every 8 cups of water. The data table shows the ratios needed. At what ratio does the constant of proportionality appear?

To identify the ratio at which the constant of proportionality appears, we need to examine the relationship between the scoops of fruit punch mix and the cups of water.

According to the information given, Val needs to add 2 scoops of fruit punch mix for every 8 cups of water.

To determine the ratio, we can divide the number of scoops by the number of cups of water:

2 scoops ÷ 8 cups = 1/4

So, the constant of proportionality, which is the ratio at which the relationship between scoops of fruit punch mix and cups of water is consistent, appears at a ratio of 1 scoop for every 4 cups of water.

Therefore, the ratio at which the constant of proportionality appears is (1, 4).

If Alex runs 3 miles in 60 minutes, how far will be run in 4 hours if he continues to run at the same rate?

3/4 miles
12 miles

15 miles
To find out how far Alex will run in 4 hours, we need to determine the rate at which he runs.

If Alex runs 3 miles in 60 minutes, we can find his rate by dividing the distance (3 miles) by the time (60 minutes):

Rate = 3 miles / 60 minutes

To find out how far Alex will run in 4 hours, we need to multiply his rate by the number of hours (4):

Distance = Rate * Time

Distance = (3 miles / 60 minutes) * (4 hours)

To simplify the calculation, we can convert 4 hours to minutes:

4 hours = 4 * 60 minutes = 240 minutes

Distance = (3 miles / 60 minutes) * (240 minutes)

By cancelling out minutes, we are left with:

Distance = 3 miles * 240 / 60

Distance = 12 miles

Therefore, Alex will run 12 miles in 4 hours if he continues to run at the same rate.
A dolphin swims 100 miles in 4 days. Which equation could be used to find how many miles it swims in 18 days?
*
1 point
y = 25 x 18
y = 100 x 18
100 = 18x
y = 100 x 4 x 18
To find how many miles the dolphin swims in 18 days, we can set up a proportion using the given information of distance and time.

In this case, we can establish the proportion:

(days the dolphin swims) / (days it takes to swim) = (distance the dolphin swims) / (distance it takes to swim)

Plugging in the values we know:

x / 4 = 100 / 18

Cross-multiplying:

18x = 4 * 100

Simplifying:

18x = 400

Dividing both sides by 18:

x = 400 / 18

Simplifying further:

x ≈ 22.22

Therefore, the equation y = 100 x 18 is the closest representation of how many miles the dolphin swims in 18 days.
Two friends entered a writing contest. Sam wrote 180 words in 60 minutes. Freya wrote 120 words in 30 minutes. Based on this data which statement is true?
*
2 points
Sam wrote MORE words per minute with a unit rate of 4 words/1 minute.
Both friends wrote the same amount of words per minute.
Freya wrote MORE words per minute with a unit rate of 4 words/1 minute.
Freya wrote LESS words per minute with a unit rate of 4 words/1 minute.
To compare the rate at which Sam and Freya wrote words per minute, we need to find their respective unit rates.

Sam wrote 180 words in 60 minutes, so Sam's unit rate is:
180 words ÷ 60 minutes = 3 words/1 minute

Freya wrote 120 words in 30 minutes, so Freya's unit rate is:
120 words ÷ 30 minutes = 4 words/1 minute

Since Freya's unit rate is higher (4 words/1 minute), we can conclude that Freya wrote MORE words per minute compared to Sam.

Therefore, the statement "Freya wrote MORE words per minute with a unit rate of 4 words/1 minute" is true.
