Mathematics

3 0

Answer:

Start at 2 1/2 plot that. Then go to 3 3/10 which is 3 right of the whole number 3 and plot it. Lastly, draw lines or bumps to represent going from 2 1/2 to 3 3/10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Simplest way (This includes the graphing part but I advise you to use the addition steps first)

I always like to convert mixed numbers into decimals.

2 1/2 is 2.5 and 4/5 is 0.8.

2.5 + 0.8 = 3.3 which is 3 3/10

Graph:

2 1/2 should be in the middle of the whole numbers 2 and 3.

That is your starting point.

Now to add 4/5 which is 0.8 you could do 2.5 + 0.8 = 3.3

You need to find your ending point.

Your ending point should be 3 tickmarks to the right of 3.

Now, you could draw hop marks or arrows starting from 2 1/2 to 4/5

Addition Steps:

First, convert 2 1/2 to an improper fraction.

2x2 + 1 = numerator.

4+1 = 5

5/2 is 2 1/2.

Now you need to find a common denominator for 2 and 5.

This should be 10.

Multiply 5/2 by 5/5

Multiply 4/5 by 2/2

25/10 and 8/10 should be the answers

Now do 25+8 but keep the denominator 10.

25+8 is 33/10.

You could convert it to 3.3 which is 3 3/10  

3 3/10 is on your number line.

B. DEVELOPING A TIME LOG is the first step in beginning to control you time.

A. A COMBINATION OF LETTERS AND NUMBERS password is used to ensure security.


Time log is basically you recording or logging the activities you have done in a certain time of a day. As you do this daily and check on the log for a few days, you will notice that you have done things that are either unimportant and time consuming, in short time was wasted.
Time log is very helpful especially is you are very busy. It will not only help you manage your tasks in any given time, it will also show you the things you can do in a shorter amount of time and allow you to schedule time for relaxation.

Passwords should be composed of a combination of letter and numbers. Other use special characters just to tighten password security. It is better that users create passwords that may form a special meaning to them so that they will not forget it regardless of length and combination.
