We can multiply both the numerator and denominator by ANY number (as long as you multiply both the numerator and denominator by the SAME number) to get an equivalent fraction
examples would be 2/12 (numerator and denominator multiplied by 2)3/18 (by 3)
4/24 (by 4) etc.
Answer:
L = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
P = 2L + 2W
you know that P = 50, W=10
So you have to replace those values on the equation
50 = 2L + 2*(10) --> Replace P and W
50 = 2L + 20 --> Multiply and now you are going to separate the unknown and the constants.
Remember that if you send a constant to the other side of the equal the sign will change to its opposite
50 - 20 = 2L --> Solve the constants
30 = 2L --> Now for the L, you have to leave it alone, so the 2 that is multiplying you have to send it to the other side of the equal but with the opposite operation, the opposite operation of multiplying is dividing, so you have:
30/2 = L
L= 15
I think that it’s A) 2/5. I just multiplied the fractions with each other.
