Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
So we are subtracting a negative which is the same as adding. Our equation becomes -1/3+1/2. To add fractions we need a common denominator (the denominator of a fraction is the number on the bottom) To fine the least common denominator we need to find the lowest number that both 3 and 2 go into which is 6. Then we will multiply each fraction by the number that will give us 6 for a denominator which is 2 for -1/3 and 3 for 1/2. So -1/3 times 2 is -2/6 and 1/2 times 3 is 3/6. Our equation is now -2/6+3/6. Now we will add the numerators ( the numerator is the number on the top of the fraction) and the denominators stay the same when adding or subtraction fractions -2/6+3/6=1/6

0.50
imagine it like a dollar.
1/4 of a dollar is 0.25
meaning 2/4 is 0.50
Not sure what the length of the rectangle is but to find perimeter of a rectangle you can use the following formula
2w+2l= perimeter
The reason we multiply both the length and width by two is because there are two ends of the width and two ends of the length.
The other formula that would also work is as follows
w+w+l+l= perimeter
Hope it helps
Answer:
42.75
Step-by-step explanation:
area of one piece, length x width: 3 x 4 3/4
14.25
area of 3 pieces: 14.25(3)= 42.75
