Sagot :
Problem 1
Answer: 7/8 of the class is present
Reason:
24 people total with 3 absent. So 24-3 = 21 are present
21/24 = (7*3)/(8*3) = 7/8
==========================================================
Problem 2
Answer: 50 minutes left on the tape.
Work Shown:
1 hour = 60 min
(5/6)*(1 hour) = (5/6)*(60 min)
5/6 of an hour = 50 min
1 hr + 30 min = 60 min + 30 min = 90 min
The first show is 90 minutes. Add on two more shows that are 50 min each to get 90+50+50 = 190 minutes used up
4 hours = 4*60 = 240 min
240 - 190 = 50 min
There are 50 minutes left on the tape.

Problem 3
Answer: 72 pieces; not enough info to calculate the waste
Explanation:
1 1/2 = 1 + 1/2 = 1 + 0.5 = 1.5
6/(1.5) = 4
Each 6 meter board is cut into 4 equal pieces each 1.5 meters long
There are 6 boards this applies to which means so far that's 6*4 = 24 pieces
Now to the other 6 boards.
3/4 = 0.75
6/(0.75) = 8
Each of the other 6 boards are cut into 8 equal pieces of 0.75 meters each
That's another 6*8 = 48 pieces
In total there are 24+48 = 72 pieces
When cutting into wood, there always is a small sliver that is discarded. While small, these slivers do add up. So yes there is some waste. Unfortunately, we don't have enough info to calculate. We would need to know the width of the saw blade.
