What is 3/8 of $36.48

$13.68

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to find 3/8 of $36.48 is to find 1/8 first. To do this divide 36.48 by 8. This equals 4.56, then to find 3/8 multiply this by 3. Which equals $13.68. A faster way to do this is also to just multiply 3/8*36.48, which also equals $13.68.

1.4

2.3

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the constant of variation is

y= kx

divide each side by x

y/x =kx/x

y/x =k

we know a and y

1.   y/x = k

4/1 =4

check the other values to make sure they are the same

8/2 = 4   12/3 =4   and 16/4 =4  

the constant of variation is 4

2.   y/x = k

3/1 =3

check the other values to make sure they are the same

6/2 = 3   9/3 =3   and 12/4 =3  

the constant of variation is 3
