fractions:
Fraction is a part of a whole, for example 1/2. Equivalent fractions are fractions that look different but show the same amount. Improper fractions have numerators that are higher than the denominator, while mixed fractions contain whole numbers and fractions.
In order to compare fractions, you need to change them so they have the same denominator. Fractions can be converted into decimals. You need to be able to work out a fraction of a given quantity.

How do we find 3/5 of 20?
Method 1 is to find 1/5 of 20, then multiply by 3.
1/5 of 20 is 20 ÷ 5 = 4.
We need 3/5 of 20, so we multiply 4 by 3.
3/5 of 20 = 4 × 3 = 12.
you can put this in your calculator:
3/5<span> × 20 = </span>3/5<span> × </span>20/1<span> = </span>60/5<span> = 12</span>
Answer:
The length of 'x' is 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the pythagorean theorem to solve this.
The pythagorean theorem is:
Therefore x = 4
Answer:
k = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
If the line passing through the points A (-1,3k) and B (k , 3) is parallel to the line whose equation is 2y+3x=9, then their slopes are equal
For coordinate AB;
slope m1 = 3 - 3k/k-(-1)
m1 = 3-3k/k+1
For the line 2y+3x = 9
2y = -3x + 9
y = -3/2 x + 9/2
Slope m2 = -3/2
Since m1 = m2
3-3k/k+1 = -3/2
Cross multiply
2(3-3k) = -3(k+1)
Expand
6 - 6k = -3k - 3
-6k+3k = -3 - 6
-3k = -9
k = -9/-3
k = 3
Hence the value of k is 3
A I think I don’t know cause the formula is y=Mx+b is a slope formula so he have to be right
