2/21 so B is the answer

The answer is B, 2/21. To find the answer for this, you first have to find a common denominator between 2/3 and 4/7. Typically, multiplying each fraction by the denominator of the other fraction will help find the number. In this case, for example, I took 2/3 and multiplied it by 7. As well as taking 4/7 and multiplying it by 3. The answers of this two multiplications are 14/21 and 12/21. By subtracting the 12/21 and the 14/21, you get the final answer of 2/21.

Two boys decided to buy a computer. The second boy had 5 6 of the money the first had. The first boy had 7 8 of the price of the

sdas [7]

Answer: The price for the computer = $1152

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first boy = F

Let the second boy = S

Let the price of computer = C

The second boy had 5/ 6 of the money the first had. I.e

S = 5/6 F

Then F = 6/5S ......(1)

The first boy had 7 /8 of the price of the computer. That is

F = 7/8C ....... (2)

Substitute F in (1) into (2)

6/5S = 7/8C

S = 5/6 × 7/8C

S = 35/48C ......(3)

Together they had $696.00 more than they need to pay. That is

F + S = C + 696 ........ (4)

Substitute equation 2 and 3 into 4

7/8C + 35/48C = C + 696

0.875C + 0.729C = C + 696

0.604C = 696

C = 696/0.604

C = 1152 dollars

Therefore, the price for the computer = $1152
