1.	a motor racing circuit has length of 35/6 miles a strait section of the circuit has a length of 5/4 miles what fraction of the circuit is the straight section
Answer» Answer: 3/14 Step-by-step explanation: 5/4 = x(35/6) x = (5/4)(6/35) = 5(6)/(4(35)) = 3/(2(7)) = 3/14 5/4 is 3/14 of the CIRCUIT check: (35/6)(3/14) = 35(3)/(6(14)) = 5(3)/(6(2)) = 5/(2(2)) = 5/4

a motor racing circuit has length of 35/6 miles a strait section of the circuit has a length of 5/4 miles what fraction of the circuit is the straight section

Answer»

Answer:

3/14

Step-by-step explanation:

5/4 = x(35/6)

x = (5/4)(6/35) = 5(6)/(4(35)) = 3/(2(7)) = 3/14

5/4 is 3/14 of the CIRCUIT

check: (35/6)(3/14) = 35(3)/(6(14))

= 5(3)/(6(2)) = 5/(2(2)) = 5/4
