is number 3.a?
turtle is right for cunnexus
If each person each 1/3 of a box, then 3 people eat 1 box. Take it from there.

can you tell me what am i suppose to do like divide multiply
3. i don't get that
Draw a picture for number two.
Use your head.
2.c?
3 is a. Yes!
2 is c. Yes!
I knew you could do it!!
To find the number of people who can receive chocolate, you can divide the total number of boxes Sylvia has (6 1/2) by the amount each person receives (1/3 of a box).
First, we need to convert the mixed number 6 1/2 to an improper fraction. To do this, we multiply the whole number (6) by the denominator of the fraction (2), and then add the numerator (1) to get the final numerator. The denominator stays the same.
6 * 2 + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13
So 6 1/2 is equal to 13/2.
Now we can divide 13/2 by 1/3 to find the number of people who can receive chocolate.
When you divide fractions, you multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction. The reciprocal of 1/3 is 3/1.
13/2 ÷ 1/3 = 13/2 * 3/1 = (13 * 3) / (2 * 1) = 39/2
Therefore, 39/2 represents the number of people who can receive chocolate. To simplify this fraction, we can divide the numerator by the denominator.
39 ÷ 2 = 19 remainder 1
So, 39/2 can be written as 19 1/2.
Since we're dealing with a real-world situation, we know that we cannot have half of a person receiving chocolate. Therefore, we can conclude that 19 is the maximum number of people who can receive chocolate.
Thus, the answer to the first question is 19: 19 people can receive chocolate.
Moving on to the second question. You are asked to identify the number that is not rational among the given options.
A rational number is any number that can be written as a fraction of two integers. Let's analyze the options:
- Square root of 3: The square root of 3 is an irrational number because it cannot be expressed as a fraction. Therefore, it is not a rational number.
- 0.25: This is equivalent to 1/4, which is a fraction and can be expressed as integers. Thus, 0.25 is a rational number.
- 1/5: This is a fraction with integers in the numerator and denominator, so it is a rational number.
- Square root of 9: The square root of 9 is equal to 3, which can be expressed as the fraction 3/1. Therefore, it is a rational number.
So, the answer to the second question is: the square root of 3 is not a rational number.
