<span>The common denominator of the two fractions is: 8 
</span><span>1/4 = (1*2)/(2*4) = 2/82/8 = (1*2)/(1*8) = 2/8 
<span>Fractions adjusted to a common denominator1/4 + 2/8 = 2/8 + 2/82/8 + 2/8 = (2+2)/8(2+2)/8 = 4/84/8 = 1/2
The answer is 1/2. 

hope this helps. </span></span>

Cas walks 3/5 miles in 24 min at a steady pace, how long does it take him to walk 2 miles?
san4es73 [151]
Your answer is 80 mins, or an hour and 20 mins. You simply turn that fraction to a decimal by diving 3 with 5. This should turn out to be 0.6. Then you multiply the 24 mins with the 2 miles and it turns out to be 48. After this, you divide 48 by 0.6 and you get 80.

The base of a triangle is 7 inches more than 4 times the height. If the area of the triangle is 93 square inches, find the base
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height = h

Let the base = 4h + 7

Area of a triangle = 1/2 * b * h

Area = 93 square inches

1/2 * (4h + 7)* h = 93            Multiply both sides by 2

(4h + 7) * h = 93*2

(4h + 7)*h = 186                    Remove the brackets

4h^2 + 7h = 186                   Subtract 186 from both sides.

4h^2 + 7h - 186 = 0

Use the quadratic formula to solve

a = 4

b = 7

c = - 186

x1 = (-7 + sqrt(7^2 - 4*4*(-186) ) /2*4

x1 = (-7 + sqrt(49 - 16*(-186)) / 8

x1 = (-7 + sqrt(49 + 2976)) / 8

x1 = (-7 + sqrt(3025)) / 8

x1 = (-7 +55 ) / 8

x1 = (48)/8

x1 = 6

There is another root, but it has to be minus and therefore cannot be used as a length. x2 = - 7.75

h = 6

b = 4*6 + 7 = 31

Check

Area = 1/2 * b * h

Area = 1/2 * 31 * 6

Area = 1/2 *186

Area = 93 which is what we were given so the answer is correct.

What is the largest digit N for which 2345N is divisible by 6?
kotegsom [21]
Consider this option (this is not the only way):
1. according to the condition 2345N is divisible by <em>6</em>, it means, that N is even number (0;2;4;6 or 8).
2. <em>6</em>=3*2, then the number 2345N is divisible by 3 also. It means, that the number (2+3+4+5+N)=(14+N) is divisible by 3, where N={0|2|4|6|8}.
3. using items 1 and 2:
(14+4)=18; only 18 is divided by 3, it means that N=4.

answer: 4.

Note also, that only 23451; 23454 and 23457 are divided by 3. Only 2345<u>4</u> is divided by 6 (2345<u>4</u>/6=3909).
