Hey there James!
So, just remember, 2/5 is almost half of 1.
When it is almost half of 1, this means that it would have to be 2.5/5
This would mean that 4/10 would be your answer, because it is almost half of 1 also.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
a = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
a/4 = 15/12
We can use cross products to solve
a* 12 = 4*15
12a = 60
Divide each side by 12
12a/12 = 60/12
a =5
19.5 because 6 minus 5.5 is equal to 0.5 and if you just add 0.5 to 19.5 it will be 19.5
Solving the equation
we get value of p = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the value of p in the equation 
Solving to find value of p:

So, solving the equation
we get value of p = -4
