Example Question #46 : How To Divide
If Henry ran miles in minutes and seconds, how long (on average) did it take him to run each mile?
minutes and seconds
minutes
minutes and seconds
minutes, seconds.
minutes and seconds
If Henry ran miles in minutes and seconds, we can find how long each mile took him to run by dividing his time by . and .
Therefore, the answer is that each mile took Henry (on average) minutes and seconds to run.
Example Question #131 : Operations
How many prime numbers are there between 14 and 30?
The prime numbers between 14 and 30 are 17, 19, 23, and 29.
Thus, there are 4 prime numbers.
Example Question #132 : Operations
Kellie is a maltipoo, meaning he is half poodle, half maltese. Kellie then has a litter with Frankie, who is half chihuahua, half pug. What percentage maltese will the puppies be?
25 percent
75 percent
0 percent
50 percent
25 percent
Because Kellie is half maltese, if she has puppies, then those puppies will be half of the breed mixture that she is. If she is half maltese, she is 50 percent maltese. Half of 50 percent is 25 percent. Therfore, 25 percent is the correct answer.
Example Question #294 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement
Evaluate:
To correctly evaluate this problem, first find the product of . Then divide that product by a divisor of
The solution is:
Example Question #50 : How To Divide
Simplify:
To simplify first reduce the fraction to an equivalent improper fraction with small numbers. Then convert to a mixed number:
Note:
Alternatively you could reduce the original fraction by dividing the numerator by the denominator:
Example Question #51 : How To Divide
Evaluate:
To solve this problem, first find the product of . Then divide that product by a divisor of .
A negative factor times a positive factor must equal a negative product:
Example Question #52 : How To Divide
Evaluate:
To evaluate this problem, first find the reciprocal of . To do so, you can simply switch the numerator and the denominator:
The reciprocal of .
This will allow you to switch the operation symbol from division to multiplication:
Example Question #53 : How To Divide
Evaluate:
This problem can be approached using several different strategies. One strategy is to reduce and then divide by :
Another method you could have used to find the correct answer is to find the reciprocal of and then switch the operation symbol:
Example Question #54 : How To Divide
Evaluate:
To correctly evaluate this problem first find the product of:
Then divide by a divisor of :
To check your answer:
Remeber a negative factor times a negative factor must equal a positive product.
Example Question #133 : Operations
Find the quotient of:
To evaluate this problem use the long division standard algorithm:
