64 movie tickets are sold. 5/8 of the tickets were for adult admission. how many adult admission tickets were sold?

First take note 64 tickets were sold in total and 5/8 of those tickets were for adults.

To solve this you must first make 5/8 a decimal and to do so you will divide 5 by 8.

which is equal to .625

Now multiply 65 by .625

Which will equal 40.42500

So the answer is 40

b) 1/3 * 1/5

step-by-step explanation:

each smallest part is 1/15 since the written one is 1/5 and it's divided by 3 equal parts. (1/5 )/3 = 1/15 = 1/3 * 1/5

this may not be at all, but i use the same website you're using for school, and if i'm stuck doing one of these i try to look for it on the section.
