Answer:

See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have the repeating non terminating decimal  x = 0.151515....

  • To start converting it into a fraction, we are going to multiply both sides of the equation by 100 and we get:

100x =15.1515...

But remember that x = 0.151515... so the number 15.1515... can be written as <u>15 + x.</u> We're going to write our last equation then:

100x = 15.1515...

100x = 15 + x

And now we will solve for x

100x = 15 + x

99x = 15

x = 15/99

x = 5/33

Thus, 0.1515.... can be written as 5/33 in its fraction form.

Divide 1515 by 100 and you would get 15.15 the divide the .15 by 3 and and you will get 3.5 so the answer will be 15 3/5

HELP HELP ME PLS I AM RUNNING OUT OF TIME!!!! HERE IS MY PROBLEM:
kramer

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To write fractions with a common denominator, you will most likely need to scale some numbers up! I will explain how.

Let's try it with the fractions

2

3

and

3

12

12 is larger than 3, so we will have to multiply the 3 by some number to equal 12. (We are really finding the Least Common Multiple of the two denominators!) To do this, you have to multiply the 3 by 4, because 3x4=12. But now the numerator doesn't match the denominator. When you scale the denominator up, you have to scale the numerator up too! So the 2 must be multiplied by 4 also.

Now you have the following:

8

12

and

3

12

These fractions now have common denominators! Now they're all set for adding or subtracting fractions.

Try another:

2

6

and

3

5

: The least common multiple of 6 and 5 is 30. (the product of the denominators)

Transform each fraction by multiplying by "1":

2

6

⋅

5

5

=

10

30

and

3

5

⋅

6

6

=

18

30

One last problem:

4

9

and

7

6

What is the least common multiple of 9 and 6? Could you use 54? Absolutely, but it is not the LEAST number that you could use. How about 18? YES!

4

9

⋅

2

2

=

8

18

and

7

6

⋅

3

3

=

21

18

Ready to go...

Hope this helped!

2. Suppose you pay $21 for a pair of shoes that was originally $30. What was the percent of decrease in price for the shoes? Set
boyakko [2]
30$ originally - 21$ paid = 9$ discount

> divide the discount by the original price, multiply by 100 to get the percent decrease.

100 x (9$ / 30$) = 30% discount
> So the shoes where on sale for 30% off the original price.

for the equation:
100 x (30-21)/30 = % decrease
