Hatshy [7]2 years ago

ANSWER: 8/21

Step:
1. Find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor)
           The two denominator which is the bottom number have to be the same ALWAYS when adding and subtracting the fraction. So to find the GCF, you keep multiplying until you see the same number, only use the bottom number to find the GCF
      7: 7, 14, 21, 28
      3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27
         GCF= 21

2.  5/7 -1/3
    Multiple both to get 21
        5/7 x 3/3 = 15/21
        1/3 x 7/7 = 7/21

3. Sove
     15/21 - 7/21
        = 8/21

Here is Triangle A. Lin created a scaled copy of Triangle A with an area of 72 square units. a. How many times larger is the are
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Triangle A is attached in the image below.

The base of triangle A is 3 units and its height is 3 units. The area of a triangle  is given as:

Area = (1/2) × base × height

Area of triangle A = (1/2) × base × height = (1/2) × 3 × 3 = 4.5 unit²

Area of the scaled copy = 72 unit²

Ratio of area = Area of the scaled copy / Area of triangle A = 72 unit² / 4.5 unit² = 16

Hence the scaled copy area is 16 times larger than that of triangle A.

b) For the scaled copy:

Area of the scaled copy = (1/2) × base × height = 72 unit²

base × height = 144

Since the base and height are equal

base² = 144

base = 12, also height = 12

Base of scaled copy = 12 = 4 × base of triangle A

Therefore the scale factor used is 4
