Well, the first thing you would do is find like denominators for each fraction.
Since the smallest common term between the two is 40, that will be your denominator for each. Then you would multiply the numerator by the number your denominator was multiplied to get to 40. So, you would end up with 16/40 because 5*8=40 and 2*8=16 and 5/40 because 8*5=40 and 1*5=5.
After that, you would just subtract them.
16/40 - 5/40 = 11/40 and as a decimal that is 0.275. So, Joe has eaten 0.275 more pizza than Jane.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
#6 is called exponent
Step-by-step explanation:
(x,y) is a pair of real numbers. The meaning is: (x,y) is an ordered pair of numbers belonging to R×R=R2 .
If you have a calculator:
<span>1) To find 1%, divide by 100 (70 / 100 = 0.7) </span>
<span>2) Then, multiply by the % you need (0.7 x 13 = 9.1) </span>
<span>Therefore 70 - 9.1 = 60.9 </span>
<span>If you don't have a calculator: </span>
<span>1) Find 50%, 10%, 5%, and 1%. With these, you can make any % you need. </span>
<span>50% = X / 2 (= 35) </span>
<span>10% = X / 10 (= 7) </span>
<span>5% = first, do 10%, then divide that by 2 (= 3.5) </span>
<span>1% = X / 100 (= 0.7) </span>
<span>Where X is the number you want to work out % for </span>
<span>2) Add those % up to get the amount you want </span>
<span>10% + 1% + 1% +1% = 13% </span>
<span>7 + 0.7 + 0.7 + 0.7 = 9.1 </span>
<span>Therefore 70 - 9.1 = 60.9
Hope that helps :)</span>
Answer:
a. 10
b. -4
Step-by-step explanation:
For these problems, since we are given the x, we plug it into the expression and solve.
a.
3(4)-2 [multiply]
12-2 [subtract]
10
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b.
5(-2)+6 [multiply]
-10+6 [subtract]
-4
