Before you can add or subtract fractions, they must have a common denominator.

-- Find a common denominator for [ something/3 ] and [ something/4 ].

-- When you have both of the fractions changed to a common denominator, you can just subtract the second numerator from the first one, and write that difference over the same common denominator.

You have to find the least common denominator, which in this case would be 12.

8/12- 3/12= 5/12

- 3 + 3x = 2x – 13 <br><br> I have to use more characters...
DENIUS [597]

- 3 + 3x = 2x – 13

Bring -3 to the right side of the equation by adding 3 to both sides

(- 3 + 3) + 3x = 2x – 13 + 3

0 + 3x = 2x - 10

3x = 2x - 10

Bring 2x to the other side by subtracting 2x to both sides

3x - 2x = 2x - 2x - 10

x = -10

Check:

-3 + 3(-10) = 2(-10) - 13

-3 + (-30) = -20 - 13

-33 = -33

Hope this helped!

Javier earns $7.50 per hour and works 20 hours per week. He wants to know how many weeks, w, he will need to work to save
disa [49]

Answer:

8 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you find out how much money he makes per week, by doing 7.5 x 20 you will find that. Now you need to find how many weeks it will take, find this by dividing 1200 by the amount he makes per week and you will end up with 8.

1) Order the animals by sleep time from least to greatest.
Zolol [24]
The way to line the animals is to put them in order going down. 0.433 56.3% 19/40 65.8%. Then you try to figure out what you need to convert so that you can get your answer. 56.3% changes to 0.563 because you move the decimal two places to the left. 65.8% changes to 0.658 and 19/40 is 0.475. 0.433 0.563 0.475 0.658. Now you compare each row to figure them out. When you do that your answer will be 0.433, 0.475, 0.563, and 0.658. I sleep about 9/24 of the day which is 0.375 and I will fit right befor 0.433.

Answer:

a) 90 stamps

b) 108 stamps

c) 333 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever you have ratios, just treat them like you would a fraction! For example, a ratio of 1:2 can also look like 1/2!

In this context, you have a ratio of 1:1.5 that represents the ratio of Canadian stamps to stamps from the rest of the world. You can set up two fractions and set them equal to each other in order to solve for the unknown number of Canadian stamps. 1/1.5 is representative of Canada/rest of world. So is x/135, because you are solving for the actual number of Canadian stamps and you already know how many stamps you have from the rest of the world. Set 1/1.5 equal to x/135, and solve for x by cross multiplying. You'll end up with 90.

Solve using the same method for the US! This will look like 1.2/1.5 = x/135. Solve for x, and get 108!

Now, simply add all your stamps together: 90 + 108 + 135. This gets you a total of 333 stamps!
