U + 4/5 = 2 and 1/3
Subtract 4/5 from each side of the equation:
U = (2 and 1/3) - (4/5)
Now it's just problem in plain old adding and subtracting fractions,
just like the ones you've done many times before.
First let's change (2 and 1/3) to a fraction: 2 and 1/3 = 7/3
So you have to find the value of (7/3) - (4/5) .
In order to add or subtract fractions, they need to have a common denominator.
The least common multiple of 3 and 5 is 15, so that's a good choice.
7/3 = 35/15
4/5 = 12/15
Now the problem is: (35/15) - (12/15).
That's 23/15 . . . . . the same thing as <u>1 and 8/15</u> .
That's the value of ' U '. What an ugly number !
Answer:
15 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Their rate together is 1/6 floor per minute.
Her rate alone is 1/10 floor per minute.
His rate is the difference of these:
1/6 - 1/10 = 5/30 -3/30 = 2/30 = 1/15 . . . . floor per minute
It would take Jacob 15 minutes to do it alone.
Based on the conversion done, the figure gotten is larger. Therefore, Carson cannot mail the package

Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
16+6-6x-4=-7x+3+7
Combine like terms
18 -6x = -7x+10
Add 7x to each side
18-6x+7x = -7x+7x+10
18+x = 10
Subtract 18 from each side
18+x-18 = 10-18
x = -8
