1 answer:

6 0

If you know your basic math problems, you can solve it mentally. say 156/5 is a close estimate, the answer would be 31.2 rounded to 31 for the estimate.. do you get it?

Which fraction is less than 1 chose all of the correct answer, and explain why you chose and write it down and explain your answ

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

$(3/4)$ and $(2/3)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

For a fraction of the form $(p / q)$ , the number in front of the division ( $p$ ) is the numerator. The number after the division ( $q$ ) is the denominator.

$\begin{aligned} \frac{p}{q} \quad \genfrac{}{}{0}{}{(\text{numerator})}{(\text{denominator})}\end{aligned}$ .

A positive fraction $(p/q)$ ( $p,\, q > 0$ ) is less than $1$ as long as the numerator $p$ is smaller than the denominator $q$ (that is, $p < q$ .) The reason is that as long as $p,\, q > 0$ :

$\begin{aligned} & \frac{p}{q} < 1 \\ \iff & (q)\, \left(\frac{p}{q}\right) < (q)\, (1) && (\text{given that $q > 0$}) \\ \iff & p < q\end{aligned}$ .

For example, in the fraction $(2/3)$ , $2$ is the numerator while $3$ is the denominator. Both the numerator and the denominator are positive, while the numerator $2\!$ is smaller than the denominator $3\!$ . Therefore, $(2/3)$ would be less than $1$ .

In what form is the following linear equation written? y-3=2/3(x-1)

lions [1.4K]

First we solve what we can solve.
y-3= 2/3(x-1)
We first multiply
y-3= 2/3 (x) - 2/3
Then we move the -3 and it becomes +3 on the other side
y= 2/3 (x) - 2/3 + 3
And we solve what we can to get our answer.
y= 2/3 (x) + 2 1/3
