My College teacher thought we should try and do some easy stuff in class (5th grade work) to see if we could pass for a grade-here it is: Suppose 3 states produce 7/16 (it's a fraction) of the gold in the United States each year. Suppose 7 other states produce 3/16 (it's a fraction) of the gols produced in the United states each year comes from these 10 states?

3 states have 7/16
7 states have 3/16
--------------------------
10 states have 10/16 = 5/8 the gold produced in a year
