4/5 - 1/2 =

3/10 in exact form

0.3 in decimal form

When subtracting a fraction, you always have to make sure your denominator/divisor's are the same.

Therefore you would find the Least Common Multiple of 5 and 2

Both would eventually come to 10, multiplying 4/5 by 2 on both the numerator and the denominator

Do the same with 1/2 except you multiply this one by 5 on both the numerator and the denominator.

Your fractions would then be  8/10 and 5/10

Then you subtract

8/10 - 5/10 = 3/10

(The Denominator does not change after all this)

Hope this helps :)

3/10 you cross multiply 5x2=10 so the denominator will be 10 and then cross multiply the numberators by the different denominator make sense? so 5x 1=5 and that mean 1/2=5/10 and 4/5=8/10 and the final answer when u subtract is 3/10 makes sense? u know what i mean jelly bean?

It goes into 80 exactly 16 times
So new equation: 16 x 8

Find the volume of a right circular cone that has a height of 17.7 cm and a base with a diameter of 15.8 cm. Round your answer t
Lelu [443]

Answer:

1156.8cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is given as:

V =\frac{1}{3}  \pi r^2h

where r = radius

h = height of cone

The height of the cone is 17.7 cm and its base radius is 7.9 cm (diameter is 15.8 cm).

Its volume is:

V = \frac{1}{3} * \pi = 7.9^2 * 17.7\\ \\V = 1156.8cm^3
