Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 (2/8 + 4/8) =

First simplify what is inside the parentheses

2/8+4/8 = 6/8

Replace with 6/8

2/3 (6/8) =

Then multiply

2*6 =12

3*8 = 24

12/24

Divide top and bottom by 12

In PEMDAS, you do what is in the parentheses first, therefore you solve (2/8 +4/8) first. You would end up with 6/8. Now you multiply 2/3 by 6/8. 2/3*6/8= 1/2 or .5. Hope this helps.

B) Express 0.6363......as a rational number in its lowest term.

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

$\frac{7}{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We require 2 equations with the repeating digits (63) placed after the decimal point.

let x = 0.636363..... (1) multiply both sides by 100

100x = 63.6363... (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) thus eliminating the repeating digits

99x = 63 ( divide both sides by 99 )

x = $\frac{63}{99}$ = $\frac{7}{11}$ ← in simplest form
