How do I simplify it

Mathematics

Since you got 16/12 when you solved the equation, what you do is first look at the fraction. It's an improper fraction, where as the numerator is greater than the denominator. 12 goes into 16 1 time so the whole number is 1. Then, you're left with 4/12. That 4/12 simplifies into 1/3. So the answer simplified is 1 1/3. 1 1/3 is a mixed number.<span />

Don't add the denominators only the numerators

So, 10/12 + 6/12 = 16/12 ---> 4/3 ---> 1 1/3

Abel and Cedric will share a total of $180. Abel will receive half as much as Cedric. What amount. in dollars, will Cedric recei
babymother [125]

Answer:

Abel receives $60, and Cedric receives $120

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Abel's share = A

Let Cedric's share = C

we are given the following

A + C = 180  - - - - - (1)   (Abel and Cedric will share a total of $180)

A = \frac{C}{2}\ - - - - - - - (2) (Abel will receive half as much as Cedric. )

from equation 2:

A = \frac{C}{2}\\ C = 2A\ - - - - - - (3)

putting this value of C in eqn (3) into eqn (1)

A + (2A) = 180

3A = 180

∴ A = 180 ÷ 3 = 60

to find C, let us replace the value of A in eqn (3) with 60

C = 2A - - - - (3)

C = 2 × 60

C = 120

Therefore, Abel receives $60, and Cedric receives $120

Write a pair of numbers such that the value of the 7 in the first number is 1,000 times the value of the 7 in the second number,
kirill [66]
437,000
400,307

In the second number, the 7 is moved 3 places to the right, and the 3 is moved 2 places to the right.


(The digit 4 is used here simply to make the numbers be the same overall length. It can be changed to any other digit (except 3 or 7) or removed. Digits that are not 3 or 7 can replace any of the zeros.)
