If 5 friends each had one part of a scarf that's 1 and 5/12 yards long what fraction of the scarf could each friend knit

17/60 yards of scarf

Step-by-step explanation:

If 5 friends each had one part of a scarf that's 1 and 5/12 yards long what fraction of the scarf could each friend knit

To solve the above question:

5 friends = 1 5/12 yards

1 friend = x yards

Cross Multiply

5 × x = 1 × 1 5/12 yards

x = 17/12 yards ÷ 5

x = 17/12 yards × 1/5

x = 17/60 yards of scarf

x = 23.78

step-by-step explanation:

answer: a. 13/44

step-by-step explanation: judging by the information given to us, we are looking for experimental probability. we can see that 13 males have chosen chocolate ice cream. there are 44 ice creams in total (remember that the total is always the denominator). so our answer is 13/44.
