Reduce the fraction to lowest terms. y+5/2y+10A:1/4B:1/2C:2/5

Mathematics

Oduvanchick [21]3 years ago

The given fraction is:

\frac{y+5}{2y+10}

We cannot take anything common from the numerator but from the denominator we can take out 2 as common because 2 is a factor of both the terms i.e. 2y and 10. 

2y + 10 can be written as 2y +2(5) which can further be written as 2(y+5)

So, our fraction now becomes:

\frac{y+5}{2(y+5)}

y+5 occurs in both the numerator and denominator and thus be cancelled out leaving behind:

\frac{1}{2}

Therefore, the given fraction in lowest term is equal to 1/2. So option B is the correct answer

<h3>The true statement about circumference of a circle is:  circumference is found by multiplying Pi by the diameter</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>The circumference of a circle is given as:</u></em>

\text{circumference } = 2 \pi r

Where,

"r" is the radius of circle

We know that,

diameter = 2 \times radius\\\\d = 2 \times r\\\\d = 2r

<em><u>Thus the circumference can also written as:</u></em>

\text{circumference } = 2 \pi r\\\\\text{circumference } = \pi \times d

Thus, the circumference is found by multiplying Pi by the diameter is correct statement
