The answer is 525, meaning it’s more than it should be, hope i helped!
2(x-1)=42
2x-2=42
2x=44
X=22
The least common denominator of 5/12 and -9/16
The answer is 48.
Now, we have to change the numerators also to make this a equal fraction to the first ones we had.
5*4 = 20
12*4 = 48
20/48
-9*3 = -27
16*3 = 48
-27/48
Well there are 8 in 1/8 so you multiply that but three and you get 24
The answer is 24
