So the formula is
7*(1/3+1/5) = x
First find the common denominator of the fractions. In this case the common denominator of 3 and 5 is 15 so we must convert them to 15ths. To do that we divide 15 by the denominator and take that answer and multiply the numerator by it.
So for 1/3 we take 15/3(denominator) = 5 and multiply the numerator (1) by it
5 * 1 = 5 so 1/3 converts to 5/15
Do the same for 1/5 we take 15/5 = 3 and multiply the numerator (4) by it
3*4 = 12 so 4/5 converts to 12/15
Now we add 5/15 and 12/15 = 17/15 so we have our formula now to
7*17/15
We make seven a fraction 7/1 and multiply across 7*17 = 119 and 15 * 1 = 15
We have 119/15 which when we divide and get 7 14/15 as your answer
Answer:
A. 3
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔDEC is bigger than ΔABC by 5. For the hypotenuse, 25 is 5 times bigger than 5.
So, side DE on ΔDEC has to be 5 times bigger than side AB on ΔABC.
If side AB equals 3, side DE equals 18 - 3, which is 15.
15 is five times bigger than 3, so the answer is A. 3.
Hope that helps.
Each person will receive 1/25 of a pot of coffee.
To find this you divide the fraction 1/5 by 5. When dividing a fraction by a whole number, you put the whole number over 1, flip the numerator and denominator (making it the inverse), then multiply the 2 fractions. So, instead of 1/5 divided by 5, you now have 1/5 times 1/5. Multiply straight across, 1 times 1 is one, and 5 times 5 is 25. Thus making the fraction 1/25.
I hope this helps!
You do (12/300)x100 and it is going to give you the a answer
Answer:
(B)15,36,39
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine which of the line segments could create a Right Triangle, we check if it satisfies the Pythagoras Theorem, taking the longest part to be the Hypotenuse in all cases.
By Pythagoras Theorem: 
In 15,30,35
In 15,36,39
In 15, 20, 29
In 5,15,30
We can see that only 15,36,39 satisfies the required condition and thus it could be used to create a right triangle.
