Answer: 5/8
Step-by-step explanation:
find common denominator:
Multiple: 3/4 * 5/6 = 3 · 5/4 · 6= 15/24 = 5 · 3/8 · 3 = 5/8 Multiply both numerators and denominators. Result fraction keep to lowest possible denominator GCD(15, 24) = 3. In the following intermediate step, cancel by a common factor of 3 gives 5/8. In other words - three quarters multiplied by five sixths = five eighths.
-3x + 5y = -9
4x + 8y = 12
Simplify the second,
x + 2y = 3
Times three,
3x + 6y = 9
Add to the first equation,
11y = 0
y = 0
-3x + 5(0) = -9
x = 3
Answer: x=3, y=0
Answer:
13 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first start by finding how much he makes in 1 hours:

Now we can set up two ratios

Solve by cross multiplying (multiply the numerator of the first fraction with the denominator of the second fraction and the numerator of the second fraction with the denominator of the first fraction)
16x=208
Divide both sides by 16 to isolate x
x=13
He would have to work 13 hours to make $208
X+y/3=5
equals x+y=15 because of the division sign "/"
equals 14.5+14.5=15
x=14.5
