Answer:
8/10
Step-by-step explanation:
add the numerator but keep the denominators the same
you could also simplify to 4/5
At the bank, Derek made 7 withdrawals, each in the same amount. His brother, John, made 5 withdrawls, each in the same amount.
Let x be the amount of one of Derek's withdrawals
Each of John's withdrawals was $5 more than each withdrawal that Derek made.
x + 5 is t the amount of one of John's withdrawals
Derek made 7 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 7 times = 7x
John made 5 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 5 times = 5(x+5)
Both Derek and John withdrew the same amount of money in the end
(A) 7x = 5(x+5)
(B) Solve for x
7x = 5x + 25
Subtract 5x from both sides
2x = 25
Divide by 2
x = 12.5
(C) check your solution
we plug in 12.5 for x in 7x= 5x + 25
7(12.5) = 5(12.5) + 25
87.5 = 62.5+ 25
87.5 = 87.5
(D) Each brother withdrawal 87.5 dollars
Answer:
2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
For the denominator you are looking for the total number of options, and in this case it is 10. Then for the numerator you are looking for what the question is asking for, in this case, it is looking for letters n to q. n, o, p and q are what you are looking for. With this information you will get 4/10 and simplified, 2/5
