Ali uses 38 of a 2pound bag of clay to make a set of bowls Each set has 4 bowls Which expression is the correct way to answer the questions How many pounds of c class=

Respuesta :

For this case we have to if Ali uses [tex]\frac {3} {8}[/tex] of 2 pounds of clay for a game of 4 bowls we have:

[tex]\frac {3} {8} (2) = \frac {6} {8} = \frac {3} {4}[/tex]

Thus, Ali uses [tex]2 * \frac {3} {8} = \frac {3} {4}[/tex]pounds of clay to make a game.

If we want to know how many pounds of clay are used in each bowl, we must divide the previous result by 4, that is:

[tex]\frac {2 * \frac {3} {8}} {4}[/tex]

ANswer:

Part A: [tex]2 * \frac {3} {8}[/tex]

Part B: [tex]\frac {2 * \frac {3} {8}} {4}[/tex]

Answer:

Question 1 : 2 · [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Question 2: 2 · [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] ÷ 4
