Work out 2/3 + 3/4? Work out 5 times 3/4? PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!
2 answers:
2/3 + 3/4
For this, you want to cross multiply
To do this, you do the first numerator (2) multiplied by the second denominator (4), and the first denominator (3) multiplied by the second numerator (3).If you draw lines between the two numbers you are multiplying, a 'cross' is made. Add these two numbers together to make the new numerator. For the denominator, multiply the bottom two numbers.
Next simplify the new fraction (Follow attached image)
5 x 3/4
This can be written as 5 x 3 / 4
5 x 3 = 15
15/4 = 3 3/4 or 3.75

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a diagonal (line segment from one corner to the opposite corner). You'll form two right triangles with the diagonal being the hypotenuse of both triangles.
Use the Pythagorean Theorem: (leg)^2 + (leg)^2 = (hypotenuse)^2.
Let h represent the length of the hypotenuse.
The question is just a bit vague. It should say opposite corners. I'm assuming the question does not mean the length of one side!
