If you change all the fractions to a common denominator then it will be easier to compare fractions. in this case the greatest common denominator is 60. you can find the the greatest common denominator by finding the greatest common factor of the numbers

5/6 = 50/60
11/20 = 33/60
-9/10 = -54/60

by doing this we can see that 5/6 is the closest fraction to 1. if you are confused on the -9/10 that is the closest to -1 not 1.

Point P is the center of the circle below. What is the exact area
Ber [7]

Answer:

192π unit²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Radius = 24

Area of circle = πr²

Area = π*24²

Area = 576π in²

The Shaded area is 120°

Entire Circumference = 360°

Hence, shaded area = 120°/ 360° = 1/ 3 of the area

1/3 * 576π in²

= 192π unit²

A shopkeeper bought some eggs at ¢15 each. Six of them were broken while the rest were sold at ¢20 each. If he made a profit of
zvonat [6]
In the given problem it is already stated that the cost of each eggs is 15 cent. Out the total eggs bought 6 were broken. The rest of the eggs were sold for 20 cents each and the profit made was $4.80.
Cost of the 6 broken eggs = (6 * 0.15)
                                           = 0.9 cents
Let us assume that the number of eggs bought = x
Then we can write the equation as
0.2x - (0.15x - 0.9) = 4.80
0.2x - 0.15x + 0.9 = 4.80
0.05x = 4.80 - 0.9
0.05x = 3.9
x = 3.9/0.05
   = 78
So the number of eggs bought by him is 78

Joe has four notes in his wallet. The total value of the notes is $75. Which type of note is not in Joe's wallet?
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

$ 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

No. of notes Joe has = 4

The total value of the notes = $ 75

From the given notes, 4 notes that can make the sum of 75 would be

$ 50 note + $ 10 + $ 10 note + $ 5

= 50 * 1 + 10 * 1 + 10 * 1 + 5 * 1

= $ 75  

Thus, the note that would not be included in the total value would $20 note as if we add it either the sum would be greater or lesser with four notes in combination.
