When using fraction strips how do you know that to fractions are equivalent

Mathematics

mafiozo [28]4 years ago

You basically would use how long they are. If you had a strip of 1/2 and a strip of 3/4... with blocks they wouldn't be the same length. The 3/4 blocks would be greater.

However if you matched a 1/2 strip with a 3/6 strip, you can see that they are the same length and are equivalent. 

Of course their is a way to do it mathematically but let me know if you want to see that.

Show that the sum of the reciprocals of three different positive integers is greater than 6 times the reciprocal of their produc
Montano1993 [528]
If a,b,c are the 3 positive integers
1/a +1/b +1/c > 6/abc
(bc+ac+ab)/abc >6/abc so
(bc+ac+ab)>6
The lowest positive integers that are different are 1,2,3 so the lowest value that (bc+ac+ab) could have is 1•2+2•3+1•3=2+6+3= 11 therefore
1/a +1/b +1/c > 6/abc is true

Can someone help, please?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
You have to first mess around with the first shape, ABCD, and split that into a rectangle and a right triangle. once you do that, it's pretty painstaking, but simple.

if you look at it you can tell that EFGH is just half the size, but the same ratios and everything.

So, you would just take every perimeter measurement from ABCD, and divide it by two and then sum them together.

2.5 + 1.5 + 4.0 + 2.0 = 10

-2 = K+7/3 find for k
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

k = -13/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Flip the equation.

k + 7/3 = -2

Step 2: Subtract 7/3 from both sides.

k+ 7/3-7/3 = -2 - 7/3

k= -13/3

Hope this helps!
