What is less than 5/6 with a denominator of 8

Mathematics

Chose a fraction with a denometer of 8.
Ex: 3/8

To compare 5/6 and 3/8 we need to find the LCM (the lowest common denominator.)

This can easily be done by listing the multiples of each number.
6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36
8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48

The Lowest common denominator would be 24.

6*4=40
8*3=40

Since we altered the denometer, either by multyplying by 6 or 8 (to get 24), we must do the same for the numerator.

3/8*3
9/24

5/6*4
20/24

Now we compare the fraction properly.
20 is larger than 9 so we know that 3/8 is less than 5/6.

Hope this helps! Please leave a thanks/braniest answer!

The tables show the number of chin-ups done by students in two different gym classes. 2nd Period 3 4 12 14 7 7 8 4 8 3 11 10 9 8
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

On average, students in the 4th period did more chin-ups than students in the 2nd period

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table values as

2nd Period     3  4 12 14 7  7  8  4  8  3  11  10  9   8 10 4  8 7  13 9

4th Period      10 3 14 14 16 15 7 12 7  10 12  8  10  9 6  11  9 1   2 5

Find the average chin-ups done by students in the gym classes

For 2nd Period gym class, the average will be;

=sum of chin-ups ÷ number of students

=sum of chin-ups in 2nd period gym class=

=3 + 4 +12+ 14+ 7 + 7 + 8+  4 + 8 + 3+  11+  10+  9 +  8 +10+ 4+  8+ 7 + 13+ 9\\\\=159

=number of students=20

Average=159÷20

=\frac{159}{20} =7.95\\\\\\=8

For 4th Period gym class

Sum of chin-ups=

=10+ 3+ 14+ 14 +16 +15+ 7 +12 +7+ 10+ 12 +8+ 10+ 9+ 6+ 11+ 9 +1 +2 +5\\\\\\=181

Number of students=20

Average number of chin-ups in the 4th period gym class

=\frac{181}{20} =9.05\\\\\\=9

Average number of chin-ups in 2nd Period Class = 8

Average number of chin-ups in 4th Period Class= 9

Conclusion; On average students in the 4th period gym class made more chin-ups (9) than those in 2nd period gym class (8).

3(9-8x-4x)+8(3x+4)=11
Papessa [141]
3(9 - 8x - 4x) + 8(3x + 4) = 11

3(9 - 12x) + 8(3x + 4) = 11

27 - 36x + 24x + 32 = 11

59 - 12x = 11

-12x = 11 - 59 

-12x = -48

x = 4

hope this helps, God bless!
