Sagot :
8/9 + 1/7= 56/63 + 9/63= 56+9= 65/63 = 1 2/63
it equals 1 and 2 over 63
it equals 1 and 2 over 63
Answer:
Given the statement: At the malt shop a large chocolate shake takes 8/9 of a pint of milk
⇒ Amount of large chocolate shake= [tex]\frac{8}{9}[/tex] pint of milk.
It is also given that: if the medium shake takes 1/7 the amount of a large.
⇒[tex]\text{Amount of small chocolate shake} = \frac{1}{7} \times {\text{Amount of large chocolate shake}[/tex]
Substitute the given values we have;
[tex]\text{Amount of medium chocolate shake} = \frac{1}{7} \times\frac{8}{9} [/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]\text{Amount of medium chocolate shake} = \frac{8}{63}[/tex] pint of a milk
Therefore, the medium shake take [tex]\frac{8}{63}[/tex] pint of a milk.
