Answer:

13/12 or 1 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

First you change 2/3 to 8/12 by multiply both the numerator and denominator by 4. Then, you add the numerators but DO NOT change the denominators. Therefore, your answer is 13/12 which = 1 1/12.

Write 85% as it's fraction, as simply as possible

cricket20 [7]

Hey ! there

Answer:

Simplest fraction form of 85% is 17/20 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Question says that we have to write the simplest form of 85% as it's fraction .

Solution : -

$\quad \longrightarrow \qquad \:85\%$

We know that ,

Percent ( % ) = 1/100

So ,

$\quad \longrightarrow \qquad \: 85 \times \dfrac{1}{100} \:$

or ,

$\quad \longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac{85}{100}$

Reducing the fraction by cancelling it by 5 :

$\quad \longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac{ \cancel{85}}{ \cancel{100}}$

We get :

$\quad \longrightarrow \qquad \: \pink{\underline{\boxed{\frak{\dfrac{17}{20} }}}} \quad \bigstar$

Now , we can't reduce 17/20 .

Henceforth , 17/20 is the simplest form of 85% .

Solve for the right triangle given only one side and angle

34kurt

Answer:

CD = √11 and CE = √11

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that m∠D is 45° (by using the sum of interior angles in a triangle) so therefore, ΔDCE is a 45 - 45 - 90 triangle (the 45, 45, and 90 refer to the angle measures). The ratio of sides in a 45 - 45 - 90 triangle is 1 : 1 : √2 where the 1s are the sides and the √2 is the hypotenuse. We need to solve for x in x : x : √22. If you notice that √22 = √2 * √11, we can use this to find x, therefore, x = 1 * √11 = √11 so CD = √11 and CE = √11.

Do the following side lengths form a triangle? 6, 18, 14

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditions for the sides to form a triangle is that sum of any two sides should be greater than the third side.

6 + 18 = 24

24 > 14

18 + 14 = 32

32 > 6

6 + 14 = 20

20 > 18

Therefore,

sides 6, 18 and 14 forms a triangle.
