You can compare fractions by using the benchmark fraction of 1/2. To use this in order to make comparisons, you will need to look carefully at what the numerator and The denominators are in a fraction. If the top number, the numerator is less than half of the denominator, then the fraction would be less then the benchmark 1/2. If the numerator is more than half of the denominator then the fraction would be more than the benchmark 1/2. For example, 3/4 is more than 1/2 because the numerator of three is more than half of the denominator 4.
1/4 + 1/2 + x = −3/4
get a common denominator 1/4
1/4 +2/4 +x = -3/4
combine like terms
3/4 +x =-3/4
subtract 3/4 from each side
x = -3/4 -3/4
x = -6/4
divide top and bottom by 2
x = -3/2
x = -1 1/2
Answer : x = -1 1/2
According to the question,
Let,
"n" represent the number of miles semir walked.
"y" represent the number of miles sarah walked.
Now, according to the question,
y = 2n - 5 ........................this is your equation
Also,
the question states, each of them collect $18 in pledges for every miles walked.
Given,
Sarah collected $450
Now,
Using unitary method,
Sarah collects $18 for 1 mile
Sarah collects $1 for (1 / $18) mile
Sarah collects $450 for (1 / 18) * 450 mile
= 25 miles
So, Sarah walks 25 miles.
Now,
Taking equation,
y = 2n - 5
Since, y is the no. of miles sarah walked, we can write 25 in place of "y" So,
(25) = 2n - 5
25 + 5 = 2n
30 = 2n
30 / 2 = n
15 = n
Since, "n" is the no. of miles that semir walked, Semir walked 15 miles.
