To solve this problem, you must find a common denominator. First, you multiply the denominators together, then, multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the original denominator of the second fraction and vis-versa.
3*4 = denominator of both
2*4 = numerator of first fraction
3*3 = numerator of second fraction
Your fractions should end up being 8/12 cups of raisins and 9/12 cup of almonds. You can now compare these fractions.
Overall, there are 1/12 more almonds than raisins.
Solution:
<u>Note that:</u>
- Given angles: w + 8° and 48°
- w + 8 + 48 = 180
<u>Solve for w in the equation "w + 8 + 48 = 180".</u>
- => w + 8 + 48 = 180
- => 56 + w = 180
- => w = 180 - 56
- => w = 124°
The value of w is 124.
The answer would be the Last option (D). This because it poses the proportion of 48 in (Amber's height) / 60 in (Lucy's height) and puts it equal to the proportion of x (what is Amber's height in the photo) / 3 (what is Lucy's height in the photo. Hope this helps :)
It means that the equations answers are
odd (numbers 1,3,5 ,7,9)
even numbers (2,4,6,8,10)
or neither (0 or infinity)
