Answer:

9/56

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{2}  +  \frac{2 }{7}  -  \frac{5}{8 }  =  \frac{9}{56}

First, let’s get our names straight. We’re dealing with three different size pieces: halves, sevenths, and eighths. The least common denominator (size) between these three is 7 • 8 = 56, and converting our fractions over to this new name gets us

1/2 = 28/56
2/7 = 14/56
5/8 = 35/56

We start with 28/56, and adding 16/56 gets us 44/56. Then, we eat 35/56 of the scoops, giving us 44/56 - 35/56 = 9/56 of our original scoops by the end.

How to find two consecutive numbers whose squares differ by 15?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Let x is the first no. then the other no. will obviously be (x+1)

according to question,
(x+1)²- x²= 15
x² +2x+1 - x² = 15 ( using (a+b)²= a²+ b² + 2ab )
2x + 1 = 15
2x = 14
x = 7

hence numbers are x = 7 and x +1 = 7+1 = 8
also 8²-7² = 64-49 = 15

hence the numbers are 7 and 8

hope it helped

Answer:

Line DG is equal to 16

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

In a parallelogram, opposite sides are congruent.

Line DG is congruent to line FE, so they must have sides of equal length.

4z-48=z

4z=z+48

3z=48

48/3=z

16=z

Now we know that the variable is 16 increments, so we sub the 16 in for z in line DG

4(16)-48

64-48=16

Line DG is equal to 16
