Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a couple ways of thinking about this.  Probably the fastest way is the rule, but the rule is not intuitive.  The rule is when you divide fraction, you keep the first fraction the same and then multiple and flip the second fraction.

2/8 x 18/9 = 36/72  To reduce the fraction, could keep dividing the top and the bottom by the same number until it is no longer possible, I could use: 2, 4 3, 9, 18, or 36.  If I used 36, I would only have to divide once.  36/16 is 1 and 72/36 is 2 so my answer would be 1/2.

I could have divided the top and bottom by 2 and got 18/36 and then divide by 2 again and get 9/18 and then by 9 and get 1/2.  As you can, see there are a lot of option.  

The second method is in the picture that I sent you, it is a little more work, but it makes sense.

If Calvin gets paid on the 15th and last day of the month, how many paychecks will he receive in
uysha [10]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

12 months in a year and Calvin gets 2 paychecks in one month

so 2 times 12 = 24 paycheck

No, because if he gets a paycheck every 2 weeks that would be about 4 paychecks in one month

so that would be about 48 paychecks in a year.

How do i find the missing length indicated
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The Pythagorean theorem states that a2 + b2 = c2 in a right triangle where c is the longest side. You can use this equation to figure out the length of one side if you have the lengths of the other two. The figure shows two right triangles that are each missing one side's measure.
