Let x = the amount of time that the third person needs to work on the job to add up to one
1 = 1/2 + 1/3 + x
1 - 1/2 - 1/3 = x
To subtract the fractions we need to put them all over a common denominator. Let's use 3*2 = 6 as the denominator; so 1 = 6/6, 1/2 = 3/6, 1/3 = 2/6:
6/6 - 3/6 - 2/6 = x
1/6 = x
The third person must work 1/6 time on the project.
The equivalent fractions are 3/4 & 12/16 hope this helps!!
The probability of rolling two dice and getting a four is 3/36.
Answer:
10 gallons of gas.
Step-by-step explanation:
250/9 = how many miles 1 gallon of gas will take
250/9 = 27.78
1 gallon of gas = 27.78 miles
275/27.78 = 9.90 gallons
9.90 gallons round up to 10 gallons
Therefore, Trey would need 10 gallons of gas to drive 275 miles.
Answer:
Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 9 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Perimeter of ABCD = 27 units
Scale factor = 1 / 3
Find:
Perimeter of A'B'C'D'
Computation:
Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 1/3[Perimeter of ABCD]
Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 1/3[27]
Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 9 units
