Answer: you need to get a common denominator.. once you have a common denominator, you can compare numerators to see what is larger..
Step-by-step explanation:
to get the common denominator, you would first see what this would be.. in this case 18, as that's the lowest. then, you would multiply each fraction by 2/2 for first and 3/3 for second, which are just funky looking ones. therefore, D is the correct answer.
First step is to find the discounted price. Finding 35% less than the original xx is the same as finding 65% of it, so we multiply by 0.65. Once this is completed we need to find 8% more than that. So we add 8% of xx, which is the same as multiplying by 0.08. Hope this helps :)
