William is 5 times as old as umaima and is also 8 year older hen umaima. how old is william?

1 answer:

6 0

Let S represent William, and M represent Umaima.
S = 5M
S = M + 8
Since they are both values of S, they equal each other.
5M = M + 8
Subtract M from each side
4M = 8
Divide each side by 4
M = 4\2
Umaima is 2; therefore William is 10.

FIND (-8/3)+(-1/4)+(-11/6)+3/8-3

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

-7 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The least common denominator of 3, 4, 6, and 8 is 24; converting all of our fractions to that denominator and solving, we have

$-\frac{8}{3}+\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)+\left(-\frac{11}{6}\right)+\frac{3}{8}-3\\=-\frac{64}{24}+\left(-\frac{6}{24}\right)+\left(-\frac{44}{24}\right)+\frac{9}{24}-3\\\\=\frac{-64+(-6)+(-44)+9}{24} -3\\\\=\frac{-70+(-44)+9}{24} -3\\\\=\frac{-114+9}{24} -3\\\\=\frac{-105}{24}-3 \\\\=\frac{-35}{8}-3\\ \\=-4\frac{3}{8}-3\\\\=-7\frac{3}{8}$

So our solution is -7 3/8
