What fraction is equal to 4.5

9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to find the fraction form of 4.5... we need to set a denominator. The denominator has to be greater than 1 because we 4.5 is not a whole number...

we want the simplest denominator in the end... so we'll pick 2 for a denominator and change it if it doesn't work in the end...

now that we know the denominator... we have to make the numerator 4 times larger than the denominator (2)... when we do this... we get 8/2

since we made the numerator 4 times larger than the denominator... we know that 8/2 is the same as 4

now we need to find the remaining 1/2

this can be done by simply adding 1/2 to 8/2 (which is easily done thanks to a common denominator)

Since 9/2 cannot be simplified any further... it is our final answer

6 adults and 9 children went.

a + c = 15

12a + 9c = 153

12(6) + 9(9) = 153

72 + 81 = 153

third choice down

step-by-step explanation:

the first inequality is based on the number of adults and campers, and the second inequality is based on the cost of feeding both the adult and the camper.

we know that there is room for 525 people max.   it's ok to have less than 525, but it's not ok to have more than 525, so the inequality is less than or equal to.   the number combination of adults (x) and campers (y) cannot exceed this 525 max.   therefore:

x + y ≤ 525

now we talk about cost.   it costs $9 to feed one adult, so depending upon the number of adults you have (x) depends upon how much it will cost to feed that number of adults.   same with the campers, who cost $5 to feed.   the adults can be represented by 9x and the campers can be represented by 5y.   since the budget cannot exceed 1,200, the second inequality is:

9x + 5y ≤ 1200
