The fraction of the furniture sold that are tables is given by 1/2y / (1/3x + 1/3y)

<h3>Equation</h3>

Let

  • number of chairs = x
  • Number of tables = y

Number of tables and chairs sold = 1/2(x + y)

= 1/2x + 1/2y

  • Fraction of chairs sold = 1/2x
  • Fraction of tables sold = 1/2y

Furniture remaining = 1/3(x + y)

Fraction of tables sold = 1/2y ÷ 1/3(x + y)

= 1/2y ÷ 1/3x + 1/3y

= 1/2y × 1 / (1/3x + 1/3y)

= 1/2y / (1/3x + 1/3y)

Therefore, the fraction of the furniture sold that are tables is given by 1/2y / (1/3x + 1/3y)

Simplify <br><br> 3a^2b^3c^5<br> __________________<br><br> 8x^4y^3z
Jobisdone [24]
We have to rewrite the expression so that it has no denominator.
For example:
1 / x = x^(-1)
1/8 = 8^(-1); 1/x^(4) = x^(-4); 1/y^(3) = y^(-3); 1/z = z^(-1).
\frac{3a ^{2} b ^{3}c ^{5}  }{8 x^{4}y ^{3}z  }= \\ =3 a^{2}b ^{3}c^{5}8^{-1}x ^{-4}y^{-3}z^{-1}
