Answer:

7/44

Step-by-step explanation:

you can't simply subtract 1/11 from 1/4 because the denominators are not the same . Meaning you have to convert the denominators into a similar number. Transformers in even number and a consecutive number while 11 is an odd number and a prime number they don't really agree on anything 11 can only be divided by itself and 1 wall for can be divided by a multitude of things. Because of them not exactly agreeing on any specific category , you have to multiply them by each other . So your new fractions should look like 11 / 44 and 4 / 44 . from there you can easily subtract 4 from 11 and get 7 / 44 now normally you can reduce these types of fractions but because seven can only be divided by itself and 44 is not a factor of 7 you cannot reduce this fraction .

Sekhar gives a quarter of his sweets to Renu and then gives 5 sweets to Raji. He has

Feliz [49]

Answer:

16 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of sweet that Sekhar had = x

Sweets given to Renu = (1/4) of x = $\frac{1}{4}x$

Sweets given to Raji = 5

Remaining sweets = 7

$x = \frac{1}{4}x +5 + 7\\\\x -\frac{1}{4}x = 12\\\\\frac{4*x}{1*4}x-\frac{1}{4}x = 12\\\\\frac{4x}{4}-\frac{1}{4}x= 12\\\\\frac{3x}{4}=12\\\\x = 12*\frac{4}{3}\\\\x=4*4\\\\x=16$

Daniel is buying trophies and mounting stands for the upcoming basketball awards ceremony. The trophies come in boxes of 12 and

AveGali [126]

So, first, you have to find the smallest number that is divisible by both 12 and 10. Which is 60. So, you need 5 boxes of trophies and 6 boxes of stands

Now to get how much it will cost you now multiply the respective costs by the amount of boxes so you get

5 x 10 = 50

6 x 6 = 36

Then you add both

50 + 36 = 86

He will spend a total of $86 on both trophies and stands.

A Triangle has an angle that measures 137.3 degrees. The other two angles are in a ratio of 3:4. What are the measures of those

Andreyy89

So we start off by subtracting 137.3 from 180 getting 42.5. If you add the ratios up (3+4) you get 7 and 7 should equal 42.5. thus,

42.5/7= 85/14

(85/14)*3=18.2 or (255/14 to be exact)
(85/14)*4= 24.29 or (170/7 to be exact)
