you can check in your calculator.
anyhow, to get the "recurring decimal to fraction", you start by setting to some variable, "x" in this case, then move the repeating part to the left of the point by multiplying it by some power of 10, and then do the equating.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X is the number of cards Kenny has
Let Y is the number of cards Lee has
1. Kenny had 5/7 more trading cards than lee, it means
X = Y + 5/7X (1)
2. After Kenny collected 50% more trading cards, he had 220 more trading cards than lee, it means:
X + 50%X = Y + 220 (2)
So, we solve the 2 equations to find out X and Y
<=> X = 
and Y = 
<=> X ≈181 and Y ≈ 52
Answer:
3.7 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Pat could do the job alone in 8 hours.
Patti could do the job alone in 7 hours
Output = Rate * time
Let the rate at which pat does the work = Rp
Let the rate at which Patti does the work = Rt
Let X be the total output
Rp * 8 = X
Rp = X/8
Rt * 7 = X
Rt = X/7
If both pat and Patti pick apples, we have
(Rp+Rt)T = X
(X/8 + X/7)T = X
[(7X + 8X)/56]T = X
[X(7+8)/56]T = X
Divide both sides by X
[(7+8)/56]T = 1
(15/56)T = 1
T = 56/15
T = 3.7 hours
6/27 bc (6/27)=(8/36)= 216/216= they are the same or 2/9=6/27=8/36
an equation would be 95d=475
