What is the least common denominator of 1/4, 3/7, 1/11

1 answer:

6 0

Alright. One way you can do this is to list multiples of each denominator:

1/4:
4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36...... and so on

3/7:
7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 57, 63......

1/11;
11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88......

Keep going until you see the least common denominator!

Now an easier way to do this is by multiplying all of the numbers in the denominator then get the factors:

4*7*11 = 308

And since those are not divisible by a whole number (besides 4 but 308 won't be divisible by 2*7*11)

Therefore 308 is the least common denominator.

A box contains 3 plain pencils and 1 pen. A second box contains 4 color pencils and 4 crayons. One item from each box is chosen

9966 [12]

Well, the chances are 3 to 1 in the first question, because there are three pencils and only one pen. In the second box it is a 50-50 chance that you will pick a crayon, because there are equal amounts of colored pencils and crayons in the second box. The numbers that I gave you aren't the fractions though. See if you can go from here.

Is the statement (3^5)^4 = (3^4)^5 true? Explain your reasoning.

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

We use the power rule of exponents to find out that both sides of the equation equal 3^20 (or 3486784401).

Step-by-step explanation:

For this example, we can just use a calculator and find out that both (3^5)^4 and (3^4)^5 are the same value. But how do we know this algebraically?

When dealing with exponents, we must have a good understanding of the properties of exponents before doing any calculations.

For this example, I recognize that the power rule of exponents is being used:

$(a^{m})^{n} = a^{m*n}$

So let's apply this rule to the given equation.

(3^5)^4 = (3^4)^5

3^(5*4) = 3^(4*5)

3^20 = 3^20

Now we know both sides of the equation equal 3^20 (or 3486784401).
