Answer:

<h2><em><u>2/9 is the answer.</u></em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>1. First, make an equation.</u></em>

<em><u>Given:</u></em>

8/9 = length of wire

2/3 = length of a part of the wire

E = 8/9-2/3

<em><u>Unknown:</u></em>

Second part of wire

<em><u>2. Make the numbers have equal denominators</u></em>

2/3 * 3/3

= 6/9

<em><u>3. Solve</u></em>

8/9 - 6/9

= 2/9

Hope this helped,

Kavitha

A number is 2/3 if another number. the sum of the numbers is 50. find the numbers
slava [35]

A number is 2/3 of another number.  Both added together equals 50.

One of these numbers consists of three parts, and the other consists of two of those three parts.  So, there are 5 equal parts in total.

Thus we need to divide 50 by 5.  50 divided by 5 equals <u>10</u>.

The first number, which has three parts, is 30.  The second number, which as two parts, is 20.

I hope this makes sense to you.  :D  Good luck in all your studies!
