13/20 because it is 6.5 vs 5/8 being 6.25

13/20 would be the same as 65%.  Divide 13 by 20 to get 65%.  Then 5/8 would be the same as 62.5%.  Divide 5 by 8.  The reason I do it this way is because you could spend all day multiplying the fractions to higher numbers and see which is bigger, but converting to other forms is the best to tell.  Percentages don't lie. So that means that 13/20 is bigger.

Lerok [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

3*4*2=24

Even if he doesn't use them all, he has 24 choices.

These kind of problems are permutation type problem. Order is not critical. Imagine yourself preparing such a meal. You have choices to be made in Sandwiches, fruits and drinks. It does not matter which order you set up the lunch box. It only matters that you chose.

You can't leave one out, nor does the problem allow you to trade (say) 2 drinks for one fruit.

What two numbers multiply to 30 and add to -17
victus00 [196]

Answer:

-15 and -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a negative times a negative equals a positive, but when added, still stays a negative, the factors must both be negative.

Negative Factors of 30:

-30 + -1 = -31

-15 + -2 = -17

-10 + -3 = -13

-6 + -5 = -11

The two factors of 30 that add up to -17 are -15 and -2.

Hope this helps. Have a nice day.
