Answer:
An inequality is a mathematical expression that contains inequality signs. For example, y≤ 12x is an inequality. Inequalities are used to tell us that an expression is either larger or smaller than another expression. Equations and inequalities can contain both variables and constants.
Step-by-step explanation:
numerator = top part of the fraction
denominator = bottom part of the fraction
* means multiply
a.
you can only add the numerator when the denominator is the same
cant add the denominator
denominator has to be the same
1/5 = 4/20
4/20 + 7/20 = 11/20
b.
1 7/8 = 15/8
3/4 ÷ 15/8 =
3/4 * 8/15 =
24/60 = divide both top and bottom by 12 =
2/5
