Convert 1 and 1/2 to eights to make it easier to subtract. 1 4/8 add 1 to 4/8
12/8 then subtract that by 7/8 straight across the numerator. That then equals 5/8

If 1/2x = a= 2/3y and x + y= na, what is the value of n?

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{2} x=a=\frac{2}{3} y\\\frac{1}{2}x=a\\x=2a \\\frac{2}{3} y=a\\y=\frac{3}{2} a\\x+y=2a+\frac{3}{2} a=\frac{4a+3a}{2} =\frac{7}{2} a=na\\n=\frac{7}{2}$

What is 3/4 of 16/21? worked out please

timofeeve [1]

Of means multiplication

So

$\frac{3}{4} \sf{of} \frac{16}{21} = \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{16}{21}$

And then simplify the numerator ad denominator

= $\frac{3 \times 16}{4 \times 21} = \frac{\ 1 \times 16}{4 \times 7}$

And simplify the numerator and denominator again

= $\frac{\ 1 \times 16}{4 \times 7} = \frac{\ 1 \times 4}{1 \times 7}$

And we are finally left with the answer which is $\frac{4}{7}$
