Answer:
686 becomes 700
Step-by-step explanation:
367+319 = 686
hundreds tens one
6 8 6
We are rounding to the hundreds places
We have to look at the tens place
8>=5 so we will round up
6 becomes 7
686 becomes 700
First equation:
5(x+1)=20 —— distribute the 5 to the x and 1
5x+5=20 ——- subtract 5 from 20
5x=15 ———— divide by 5 from both sides
X=3 ————— answer
Second equation:
5x+1=20——— subtract 1 from 20
5x=19 ———— divide by 5 from both sides
X=19/5———— answer in fraction form
X=3.8————- answer in decimal form
Answer:
$662.29
Step-by-step explanation:
28 7/8, write 875/1000 and keep dividing by 5 to get the simplest form
Answer:
2 13/14 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The remaining length is the difference between the starting length and the amount cut off:
5 3/7 - 2 1/2 = (5 -2) +(3/7 -1/2) = 3 +((3·2-7·1)/(7·2)) = 3 -1/14
= 2 13/14 . . . feet remaining

<em>Additional comment</em>
Addition and subtraction of fractions can be accomplished using a formula that does not rely on finding a least common denominator. In this case, the denominators have no common factors, so their product is, in fact, the least common denominator.
