Find the least common denominator (LCD) of 1/20 and 11/30

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the LCD, all you have to do is find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators.

The fractions are already reduced, so you have to find the LCM of 20 and 30. The LCM of 20 and 30 is 60.

<u>To find the LCM:</u>

20 and 30 are easy numbers, so you can just list the multiples out.

20: 20, 40, 60, etc.

30: 30, 60

The lists both have 60, so the LCM is 60.

Another way is to prime factorize the two numbers.

20: 2^2*5

30: 2*3*5

Then, take the non-repeating factor from the second number (3) and multiply that by 30, which is 60.

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

LCD(1 /20 , 11 /30) = LCM(20, 30) = 22×3×5 = 60

1 /20 = 3 /60

11 /30  = 22 /60

If you were to solve the following system by substitution, what would be the best
xxMikexx [17]
To solve the two equations simultaneously using the substitution method we need to rearrange one of the equation to make either 'x' or 'y' the subject. 

We can try in turn rearranging both equations and see which unknown term would have been easier to solve first

Equation 2x+8y=12

Making 'x' the subject
2x=12-8y , dividing each term by 2
x=6-4y⇒ (Option 1)

Making 'y' the subject
8y=12-2x, multiply each term by 8 gives
y= \frac{12}{8} - \frac{2}{8}x⇒ (Option 2)

Equation 3x-8y=11
Making 'x' the subject
3x=11+8y, divide each term by 3
x= \frac{11}{3}+ \frac{8}{3}y ⇒ (Option 3)

Making 'y' the subject
8y=3x-11, divide each term by 8
y= \frac{3}{8}x- \frac{11}{8} ⇒ (Option 4)

From all the possibilities of rearranged term, the most efficient option would have been the first option, from equation 2x+8y=12 with 'x' as the subject, x=6-4y
