This question is asking for a list of fractions, that when you pull out common factors, they will all simplify back to the 8/5 fraction.
So if 2 is the common factor, you multiply the numerator and denominator by 2.
2: (8*2)/(5*2)= 16/10
3: (8*3)/5*3)= 24/15
4: (8*4)/(5*4)= 32/20
5: (8*5)/(5*5)= 40/25
10: (8*10)/5*10)= 80/50
Eloise's Potential List:
16/10, 24/15, 32/20, 40/25, 80/50
If you simplify any of these fractions above, you will get 8/5 again.
To work backwards:
80/50: 10 goes into 80, 10 goes into 50= 8/5
16/10: 2 goes into 16, 2 goes into 10= 8/5
Hope this helps! :)
The median is 6
the mode is 7
and the mean is 22
S= a/4 + 8u
S - 8u = a/4 (First you subtract 8u from both sides)
4(S - 8u) = a ( Then you multiply both sides by 4)
Final answer:
4(S - 8u) = a
Answer:
Expand the 21(2-x)=42-21x
then you add 12 x with 42-21x
making it 42-9x=44
hence,
-9x= 2
9x= -2
x= - 2/9
hope this helps. :)
