What you do is multiply each number by 35. You get 35 by multiplying the denominators, 7 and 5. You then multiply the numerators and 51 by 35. Once you multiply the numerators you divide that answer by the denominator. Just remember, you multiply all of the numbers by 35 in this equation and ONLY divide the the answer by the denominator if it’s in a fraction.

When you convert them all..

10x+7=51

Now you can isolate the variable.

Subtract both sides by 7 so then it looks like..

10x = 24

Divide both sides by 10

Answer: x = 2 4/10; simplified to 2 2/5

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

On every 3 DVDs she rents, 1 DVD is received for free

Rent of each DVD = $3

Total amount paid = $114

Now,

The total number of DVDs she took on rent = $\frac{\textup{Total amount paid}}{\textup{Rent of each DVD}}$

The total number of DVDs she took on rent = $\frac{\textup{114}}{\textup{3}}$

The total number of DVDs she took on rent = 38

also,

For every 3 DVDs she gets 1 Free DVD

thus,

For every 1 DVD she gets $\frac{\textup{1}}{\textup{3}}$ free DVD

therefore,

For 38 DVD she gets $\frac{\textup{38}}{\textup{3}}$ free DVD

she gets 12.67 DVDs free

Since,

the DVDs cannot be given in fraction

Hence she will get 12 free DVDs

A wallet contains $460 in $5, $10, and $20 bills. The number of $5 bills exceeds twice the number of $10 bills by 4, and the num

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Number of $5 bills = 32

Number of $10 bills = 14

Number of $20 bills = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x number of $5, y number of $10 and z number of $20

The number of $5 bills exceeds twice the number of $10 bills by 4.

Therefore, x = 2y + 4

The number of $20 bills is 6 fewer than the number of $10 bills.

Therefore, z = y - 6

A wallet contains $460 in $5, $10, and $20 bills.

Therefore,

5x + 10y + 20z = 460

Substitute x and y into equation

5(2y+4) + 10y + 20(y-6) = 460

10y + 20 + 10y + 20y - 120 = 460

40y - 100 = 460

40y = 460 + 100

40y = 560

y = 14

Put the value of y into x = 2y + 4 and solve for x

x = 2(14) + 4

x = 32

Put the value of y into z = y - 6 and solve for z

z = 14 - 6

z = 8

Hence, the each type of bills,

Number of $5 bills = 32

Number of $10 bills = 14

Number of $20 bills = 8

how many gallons will it take to mow a lawn if you maintain the rate of 1/2 gallon of gasoline per 1/4 mowed

Musya8 [376]

Recall that one whole is 1, or in this case since the denominator is 4, then 4/4 is 1 whole, so the whole lawn is 4/4.

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
gallons&mowed\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\frac{1}{2}&\frac{1}{4}\\\\
g&\frac{4}{4}
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{2}}{g}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{4}{4}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{g}{1}}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{4}{4}}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{g}=\cfrac{1}{4}\cdot \cfrac{4}{4}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{2g}=\cfrac{1}{4}\implies 4=2g\implies \cfrac{4}{2}=g\implies 2=g$

What's greater -5/7 or -2/7

nadezda [96]

I think -2/7.

-2/7 is closer to 0 which is neither positive nor negative.

-5/7 is closer to a whole negative number.
