Harry makes no sense because 1/4 into a denominator of 8 is 2/8. So 2/8 + 1/8 is equal to 3/8 and Harry has done the equation wrong.

Harry is wrong and Jane is right because to add fractions they have to have a common denominator. Because 8 is a multiple of 4, 8 is the common denominator so....
1/4+1/8
To change 1/4 to have 8 as the denominator you have to multiply the top and bottom by 2.
1/4*2/2= 2/8.
2/8+1/8= 3/8

Hope this helps

If 3x - 2y = 9 , 27x³- 8y³= 1377 , prove that xy = 4 <br><br><br><br>plzz answer this question... ​
solniwko [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given that , the Value of

  • 3x - 2y = 9
  • 27x^3 - 8y^3 = 1377

And we need to find the prove that ,

  • xy = 4

We know a identity as ,

  • (a-b)^3 = a^3-b^3-3ab(a-b)

On cubing both sides of the given equation,

  • (3x-2y)^3 = 9^3

Simplify and then substitute ,

  • 27x^3-8y^3 -3(3x)(2y)(3x-2y ) = 729

  • 1377 - 18xy (9) = 729

  • 162xy = 1377-729

  • xy =\dfrac{648}{162}

  • xy = 4

Hence Proved !
