Ajewlery store has 9/10 of an ounce of gold . they split it into groups of 1/6 ounce groups. how many groups can they make

5.4 groups of 1/6 ounces can be made from 9/10 ounces of gold.

Solution:

It is given that a jewelry store has 9/10 of an ounce of gold. The gold is now split into groups of 1/6 ounce groups.  

The total amount of gold is 9/10 ounces

We shall convert 9/10 into decimal form for the simplicity of the calculation. Which gives us:

Now, we also know that the gold is going to be split into groups of 1/6 ounces.

To make the calculation easy we will convert 1/6 to decimal as well.

To find out how many groups can be made out of the 0.9 ounce of gold we need to divide the total quantity by the size of each group.

This can be done as follows;

So, from the above calculation we can see that 5.4 groups can be made from 9/10 ounces of gold.

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !

start with a line segment pq that we will copy. mark a point r that will be one endpoint of the new line segment. set the compasses' point on the point p of the line segment to be copied. adjust the compasses' width to the point q. the compasses' width is now equal to the length of the line segment pq.
