The last pair of numbers bracket the point 3/7.

12/32 = 3/8 < 3/7

15/18 = 5/6 > 3/7

_____

3/7 ≈ 0.428571... (repeating), so will be larger than 3/8 = 0.375, 12/32 = 3/8, and 4/10. That is, 3/7 is larger than the largest number of each pair except the last.

------

You can always compare two fractions to see which is larger by cross-multiplying. That is a/b vs c/d gives the same result as ad vs bc. (Put the product on the numerator side of the comparison.)

Here, that would mean comparing 12/32 vs 3/7, we would get 12·7 vs 3·32, or 84 vs 96. The fraction on the left is smaller.

Comparing 3/7 vs 15/18, we would get 3·18 vs 7·15, or 54 vs 105. The fraction on the right is larger.

Answer:

Factors are numbers you can multiply to get each number. For example, for 30 you would have factors of 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, and 30.  I got that because 1 x 30 = 30, 2 x 15=30, 3 x 10 = 30, and 5 x 6= 30.  If the factors are just 1 and that number it is prime.  If there are other factors, it is composite.  30 would be composite.

Anybody know the answer to this question you
MariettaO [177]

Try to divide by each prime number starting with 2. If it is divisible, keep trying the same prime number until it is not divisible. Then move on to the next prime number, 3. Keep dividing until you get 1. All the prime numbers you divided by are the prime factorization.

List of the first several prime numbers: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29

Start with 85.

85 is not divisible by 2.

Move on to 3.

85 is not divisible by 3.

Move on to 5.

85/5 = 17

17 is a prime number, so now divide 17 by 17.

17/17 = 1

We divided just by 5 and 17.

Answer: The prime factors of 85 are 5 and 17.

What is the scale factor in the dilation ?<br><br>1/6<br><br>1/3<br><br>3<br><br>6​
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>1) Find two corresponding lengths between the image and the pre-image</u>

Pre-image (bottom side) = 3 units

Image (bottom side) = 9 units

We can use any corresponding lengths for this step.

<u>2) Divide the length of the side from the image by the length of the side from the pre-image</u>

9 units ÷ 3 units

= 3

Therefore, the scale factor of the dilation is 3.

I hope this helps!

HELP any1 good at math?
valentina_108 [34]

Step-by-step explanation:

the equations are :-

=》d = 40m + 200

=》d = 50m

here, by equalising both equations.

( since, d = d )

=》40m + 200 = 50m

=》50m - 40m = 200

=》10m = 200

=》m = 200 ÷ 10

=》m = 20

now,

=》d = 50m

=》d = 50 × 20

=》d = 1000
