First of all, you add 1/3 and 4/5, so you get:
\frac{1}{3} +  \frac{4}{5}

To add 2 fractions, they need to have the same denominator. Since 3 and 5 don't have a common factor, so you multiply 1/3 by 5, and 4/5 by 3, so you get:
\frac{1*5}{3*5} +  \frac{4*3}{5*3}
\frac{5}{15} +  \frac{12}{15}

Now, the two fractions got the same denominator, and you can add them by adding the numerators over the same denominator. (You don't add denominators in addition) so you get:
\frac{5+12}{15}
\frac{17}{15}

That's the sum of 1/3 + 4/5.

Now, they want the sum of the 2 fractions 7 times. So you multiply 17/15 by 7. And as you know, 7 = 7/1. So you get:
\frac{17}{15} *  \frac{7}{1}

In multiplication no need to have the same denominator. You multiply nominators by nominators and denominators by denominators. So you get:
\frac{17*7}{15*1}
\frac{119}{15}

Since 119 and 15 don't have a common factor, so they can't be simplified.
So, the answer is 119/15. 

Hope this Helps! :D

What you have to do first is to add \frac{1}{3} and \frac{4}{5},

<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

Therefore we have:

= \frac{1}{3} + \frac{4}{5}

= ( \frac{1}{3} + \frac{4}{5} ) / 15 (15 is the smallest number that divide both denominator also known as LCD)

= (5 x 1) + (3 x 4) / 15

= 5 + 12 / 15

= \frac{17}{15}

Therefore, the sum of \frac{1}{3} + \frac{4}{5} is \frac{17}{15}

But since the question says you should determine the sum of the 2 fractions, therefore you should multiply \frac{17}{15} by 7. Therefore you should have:

\frac{17}{15} X 7 (7 can also be expressed as \frac{7}{1})

= \frac{17}{15} x \frac{7}{1} (notably, in multiplication there is no need for the fraction to have the same denominator. You can multiply both numbers at the top together (numerator) and do same with the denominator.

= \frac{119}{15}

= 7\frac{14}{15}

Therefore, 7 times as much as the sum of \frac{1}{3} and \frac{4}{5} is 7\frac{14}{15}

28/8 = 3 remainder 4 so 3 4/8(fraction) or 3 1/2
You would want to divide the minutes to the songs so you can find out how long one song is, but sense there was a remainder you could turn it into a fraction or you could keep diving. In this case you would want to stop. To find the fraction here is a formula the divisor is the denominator, the numerator is the remainder and the whole number is the number you get that is behind the remainder

For a moving object, the force acting on the object varies directly with the object's acceleration. When a force of 20 N acts on
jeka94

The acceleration of the object will be 10 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation is a relationship between two variables that can be expressed by an equation in which one variable is equal to a constant times the other

  • If y varies directly with x, then y ∝ x
  • y = k x, where k is the constant of variation

For a moving object, the force acting on the object varies directly with the object's acceleration.

Assume that the force is F and the acceleration is a

∵ F ∝ a

∴ F = k a

∵ F = 20 newtons

∵ a = 4 m/s²

- Substitute these values in the equation above to find k

∵ 20 = k (4)

∴ 20 = 4 k

- Divide both sides by 4

∴ k = 5

- Substitute the value of k in the equation

∴ F = 5 a ⇒ equation of variation

∵ F = 50 Newtons

∵ F = 5 a

∴ 50 = 5 a

- Divide both sides by 5

∴ 10 = a

∴ a = 10 m/s²

The acceleration of the object will be 10 m/s²
