1. mr. maxwell can write 8 1/5 paragraphs of his novel in an hour. mr. maxwell wrote 32 4/5 paragraphs today.
(a) write an equation, without solving, for how many hours mr. maxwell wrote.
(b) solve your equation to determine the number of hours mr. maxwell spent writing. show your work.

B = 4 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

B.) 8 1/5h=32 4/5. to find h simply divide each side by 8 1/5. this will zero out the 8 1/5, and make 32 4/5 become 4. h=4. Mr.M worked for 4 hours to write 32 4/5 paragraphs.

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
