The numerator of a fraction is 3 less then the denominator. If 1 is added to the numerator, the value of the fraction becomes 3/

andrew11 [14]

The fraction is $\frac{5}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

The denominator of fraction = x

Numerator of fraction = x-3

Fraction = $\frac{x-3}{x}$

According to given statement;

1 is added to the numerator, the value of the fraction becomes 3/4.

$\frac{x-3+1}{x}=\frac{3}{4}\\\\\frac{x-2}{x}=\frac{3}{4}$

Using cross multiplication

$4(x-2)=3*x\\4x-8=3x\\4x-3x=8\\x=8$

Fraction = $\frac{x-3}{x}=\frac{8-3}{8}=\frac{5}{8}$

What is 1/10th of 2,871,000?

abruzzese [7]

This is fairly simple. Divide 2,871,000 by 10 and that's your answer!

$\frac{2,871,000}{10} =287,100$

Also, since you're dividing by a factor of 10 (or in this case, <em>10</em>) you can just take away as many places as are zeros in the number you're dividing from. This works for <em>10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, etc. </em>In this case, since there is only one zero in 10 you only take away one place marking, which gives you 287,100.

How can you use similar triangles to find a missing measurement?

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

By comparison of the sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

If triangles are similar, that means their angles are equal and sides are proportional.

If you already have a proportion of two corresponding sides between triangles, then use that proportion and set it equal to a side you already know the measurement to. Hopefully that side is corresponding to your missing measurement, and you can then solve it.

What is the area of the trapezoid?

ExtremeBDS [4]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

42 square units

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

For a better understanding, I add an EFGH Rectangle.

The area of EFGH Rectangle = p x l

The area of EFGH Rectangle = 10 x 8

The area of EFGH Rectangle = 80cm²

The area of BHA Triangle = 1/2 x a x t

The area of BHA Triangle = 1/2 x 6 x 4

The area of BHA Triangle = 2 x 6

The area of BHA Triangle = 12cm²

The area of AGD Triangle = 1/2 x a x t

The area of AGD Triangle = 1/2 x 4 x 2

The area of AGD Triangle = 4cm²

The area of CFD Triangle = 1/2 x a x t

The area of CFD Triangle = 1/2 x 2 x 6

The area of CFD Triangle = 6cm²

The area of BEC Triangle = 1/2 x a x t

The area of BEC Triangle = 1/2 x 8 x 4

The area of BEC Triangle = 4 x 4

The area of BEC Triangle = 16cm²

The area of the trapezoid = EFGH Rectangle - (BHA Triangle + AGD Triangle + CFD Triangle + BEC Triangle)

The area of the trapezoid = 80 - (12 + 4 + 6 + 16)

The area of the trapezoid = 80 - 38

The area of the trapezoid = 42cm²

<h3>Conclusion :</h3>

The area of the trapezoid is <u>42 square units</u>
