Answer:
15/2
Step-by-step explanation:
5 3/4 - 1/6x = 4 1/2
move the variable to it's own side.
5 3/4 - 4 1/2 = 1/6x
change the subtracting side to have common denominators
5 3/4 - 4 2/4 = 1/6x
1 1/4 = 1/6 x
divide both sides by 1/6, same thing as multiplying both sides by 6 (reciprocal)
30/4 = x
reduce: 15/2 = x
Answer:
2(x^2+9)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x^2 +18
Factor out a 2
2(x^2+9)
First you have to convert the denominators to the Lowest Common Multiple (unless the denominators are equal, of course).
Example 1/4 + 1/2
The LCM of 2 and 4 = 4 so we can write 1/2 as 1*2/2*2 = 2/4.
Now we can add:-
1/4 + 2/4 = 3/4.
Same thing goes for subtraction.
Example 2:-
5/6 - 1/7 :-
LCM of 6 and 7 = 6*7 = 42 so we have:-
5*7 / 6*7 - 1*6 / 7*6
= 35/42 - 6/42 = 29/42
1 cm = 10 mm
1 x 44 = 10 x 44
44 cm = 440 mm
