1/5 = 3/15
1/3 = 5/15
2/3 = 10/15
So no :)
Reason why:
You want to find the common denominator between all three fractions, so all fractions are the same proportions. So in this case, if you multiply 5*3 you get 15, making it the common denominator. Then since you multiplied the 5 in 1/5 by 3 to get 15, and you have to multiply the 3 in 1/3 and 2/3 by 5 to get 15, then you multiply the numerator by the same number.
Sorry I am terrible at explaining things. Hope this helped though!
Let, that number = x
It would be: x * 0.65 = 52
x = 52 / 0.65
x = 80
So, that number and your answer is 80
18 is 45% of 40
45%/100 = 0.45
0.45*40=18
Kyle leaves 1.80 because you have to do 0.15*12
Answer:
$3.75
Step-by-step explanation:
dimes= x
quarters= x+2
nickels= 2x+2
sum is 3.75
.10x+.25(x+2)+0.05(2x+2)=3.75
.10x+.25x+.50+0.10x+0.10=3.75
0.45x=3.15
x=7 dimes (0.70)
x+2=9 quarters (2.25)
2x+2=16 nickels (0.80)
They add to $3.75
