1.Identify the fractions. Using the distributive property, you’ll eventually turn them into integers.
2.For all fractions, find the lowest common multiple (LCM) -- the smallest number that both denominators can fit neatly into. This will allow you to add fractions.
3.Multiply every term in the equation by the LCM.
4.Isolate variables adding or subtracting like terms on both sides of the equals sign.
5.Combine like terms.
6.Solve the equation and simplify, if needed.
Answer:
9765625
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common ratio between consecutive terms , that is
r = 25 ÷ 5 = 125 ÷ 25 = 5
This indicates the sequence is geometric with n th term
= a₁
where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio
Here a₁ = 5 and r = 5 , then
a₁₀ = 5 ×
= 5 × 1953125 = 9765625
4d=56
d=14. Ad a result, Dorothy is 14 years old. Hope it help!

Answer: Choice E</h3>
======================================================
Explanation:
Think of 25 as 25/1 and 5 as 5/1
Choice E is really saying
which becomes
. Note the second fraction flips and we change to a multiplication sign.
