If 24 counters are the whole set how many are five-eighths of the set?
24 counters = 8/824 * 5/8 = 15
How many blue counters must be added so that the ratio of yellow counters to total counters is 1 to 6?
Let the number of Yellow counters you already have is Y Let the number of non-yellow counters you already have is Z Then the current ratio of Yellow counters to the total counters is Y : Y + Z Let the number of Blue counters you add be B After they have been added, the ratio of Yellow counters to the total counters is Y : Y + Z + B This is 1 : 6 Thus Y = 1 and Y + Z + B = 6 → Z + B = 5 Which means that for the Yellow counters you have you will have five times as many counters made up of whatever non-Yellow counters you originally had plus the Blue counters you added. Thus to find out how many Blue counters to add, take the number of Yellow counters, multiply it by 5 and subtract the number of non yellow counters you originally had. examples: You had 6 Yellow counters Add 6 × 5 - 0 = 30 Blue counters Which gives you 6 Yellow and 30 Blue counters → ratio Yellow : total counters = 6 : 30 + 6 = 6 : 36 = 1 : 6 You had 4 Yellow counters and 6 Red counters Add 4 × 5 - 6 = 14 Blue counters Which gives you 4 Yellow counters, 6 Red counters and 14 Blue counters → ratio Yellow : total counters = 4 : 6 + 14 + 4 = 4 : 24 = 1 : 6 You had 4 Yellow Counters, 2 Blue counters and 3 Red counters Add 4 × 5 - (2 + 3) = 15 Blue counters Which gives you 4 Yellow counters, 3 Red counters and 2 + 15 = 17 Blue counters → ratio Yellow : total counters = 4 : 3 + 17 + 4 = 4 : 24 = 1 : 6
What is the greatest number of counters you can place on this grid without four of them lying at the corners of a square?
15
How do you do parts and whole fraction practice?
If 15 counters are the whole set, how many are 3/5 of the set 5
How many counters are needed to make a square array with 5 counters on one side?
If you're making an outline of a square, then 16 counters. You have the 4 corner counters, each shared by 2 sides and then in between the corner counters there are 3 counters on each of the 4 sides (4*3 = 12). If you're filling the inside of the square with counters, then you have 5 rows of 5 = 25 counters.
Can you place 15 counters so that you have the same number of counters along each side?
yes
If 24 counters are the whole set how many are five-eighths of the set?
24 counters = 8/824 * 5/8 = 15
If 9 counters are a whole how many are five thirds of the set?
9/3*5=15
If 15 counters are the whole set how many are 3 fifth of the set?
3/5 * 15 = 9

What is the collective noun for counters?
Hmm, is that money counters or store counters. Try a staff of money counters or a row of store counters.
What is the greatest number of counters you can place on this grid without four of them lying at the corners of a square?
15
How do you do parts and whole fraction practice?
If 15 counters are the whole set, how many are 3/5 of the set 5
If 20 counters are the whole set what fraction of the set is 16 counters?
16 counters is 4/5 of all 20 counters.16/20
A number of counters are arranged in rows so that there are 5 counters in each row and 22 counters around the outside how many counters are there altogether?
25
If 14 counters is half then what is ONE?
If 14 counters is half, you multiply it by 2 to get 28 counters, which is one.
