It is given in the question that
A farmer owns about 960 acres of land. If his farm is square.
First we convert acres to miles square, and the conversion expression is
Therefore,
Let the side length of the square be x miles .
And the formula of area of square is
Answer:
1/15
Step-by-step explanation:
(1). <em>Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD (Least Common Denominator). </em>
So lets do step one now, the LCD is 15 so we have to make both denominators agree on one number, so 15 is the number both denominators agree on.
Solve:
2*3/5*3 - 1*5/3*5
(2). <em>Complete the multiplication.</em>
6/15 - 5/15
(3). <em>The two fractions now have like denominators so you can subtract the numerators.</em>
6 - 5 / 15 - 15 = 1/15
*Pro tip:
<em>The denominator doesn't change and stays the same. So you don't </em>
<em>subtract the 15 by 15.</em>
(4). <em>Then you'll get the answer and then if you can simplify then simplify.</em>

The Answer is 1/15, and cannot be simplified.
So the answer is 1/15

Let x be our first number and y be our second number.
The product of the two numbers will be xy.
Now let x be the one that increases by 50% and y be the one that decreases by 50%.
We can represent that by 1.5x and 0.5y, respectively. If you are confused by that, let me explain. If something increases by 50%, it becomes 1.5 times larger. So for x, that means 1.5x.
And if something decreases by 50%, it becomes 0.5 times smaller. So for y, that means 0.5y.
Therefore we have 1.5x and 0.5y. And the product of those two:
(1.5x) * (0.5y) = (3/2)x * (1/2)y = (3/4)xy
So our product is now (3/4)xy.
Comparing this answer to our original product of xy, we see that it is now only 3/4 as much or 75% of what it originally was.
Therefore, the product will DECREASE by 25%.
