Write each ratio as a fraction in simplest form. Then explain its meaning. 4 flutes and two drums
The ratio as a fraction in its simplest form for the Number of drums and flutes is 1:2.
What is a Ratio?A ratio expresses the number of times one number contains another. For example, if a dish of the fruit contains eight oranges and six lemons, the orange-to-lemon ratio is eight to six.
A ratio shows us the number of times a number contains another number. Given the following details:
Number of drums = 2
Number of flutes = 4
The ratio for the number of drums to the number of flutes in its simplest form can be written as,
Number of drums / Number of flutes = 2 / 4
Dividing both the numerator and the denominator of the fraction by 2, we will get,
Number of drums / Number of flutes = 1/2
Hence, the ratio as a fraction in its simplest form for the Number of drums and flutes is 1:2.

In this problem we have
total cups of cleaner------> [tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
convert to an improper fraction
[tex]1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1*2+1}{2}= \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Divide. −24/7 please help
To divide -24 by 7, divide 24 by 7 to get 3.4286 and then apply the sign, resulting in -3.4286 as the answer.
The student's question involves the arithmetic operation known as division. To divide
-24 by 7, you would perform the division as you would with positive numbers, then apply the sign of the numbers. Since one number is negative and the other is positive, the result will be negative. Performing the division: 24 divided by 7 equals approximately 3.4286. Since
24 is negative, the result is -3.4286. When dividing by a single digit, you don't necessarily need to apply long division; instead, you can estimate how many times 7 fits into 24.
Remember that division by powers of 10 involves moving the decimal point. However, that's not applicable here since 7 is not a power of 10.

a recipe calls for 1 1/2 cups of flour, 3/4 cups of white sugar, and 1/3 cup of brown sugar the recipe makes 6 servings.
(a) how many total cups of flour are there per serving? show your work
(b) how many total cups of sugar (white and brown) are there per serving?show your work
(c) supposed you modify the recipe so that it makes 9 servings. How much more flour do you need for the modified recipe than you need for the original recipe?Show your work
Answer:
(a) 0.25 cups of flour
(b) 0.18 cups of sugar
(c) 0.5 cups of flour
Step-by-step explanation:
The recipe requires 3 amounts of ingredients to make 6 servings. The following is needed:
1. 1 1/2 cups of flour
2. 3/4 cups of white sugar
3. 1/3 cups of brown suger
a) The total cups of flour per serving can be determined by dividing the flour needed for 6 servings by 6:
[tex]=1.5/6=0.25[/tex]
0.25 cups of flour is needed per serving
b) The total cups of brown and white sugar can be determined by divided both quantites by 6 servings.
For brown sugar = 0.75/6 = 0.125 cups of brown sugar
For white sugar = 0.333/6= 0.0555≈0.055 cups of white sugar
Total amount of sugar = brown sugar + white sugar = 0.125+0.055=0.18 cups of sugar
c) If we can make 9 servings we can determine the the percentage of more servings and the amount of flour for the modified recipe.
The percentage change of recipes = ((9-6)/9)*100=33.33%
Therefore the new amount of flour needed is:
[tex]1.5*0.3333+1.5=2[/tex]
Therefore we need 2-1.5=0.5 cups more flour than the original recipe

= (12 + 10 + 12 + 8) + (1/4 + 1/4 - 5/6)
= 42 + (3/12 + 3/12 -10/12)
= 42 - 4/12 = 42 - 1/3
