I was taught to get a common denominator and then arrange them in the correct order.

So first you find out what all the denominations can be multiplied to. That would be 40

So you multiply the bottom of each fraction by a number that will get 40.

3/4 * 10 = 30/40

7/8 * 5 = 35/40

3/5 * 8 = 24/40

Then you get 30/40, 35/40, and 24/40.

Then you organize the m.

24/40, 30/40, and 35/40

Answer:

Distances in order from least to greatest:

,\frac{3}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Three days last week Maria ran 3/4 mile 7/8 Mile and 3/5 mile.

\frac{3}{4},\frac{7}{8},\frac{3}{5}

In order to determine which distance is greater and which one is shorter we will make the denominators common of all the fractions.

Take LCM of 4,8,5;  2 × 2 × 2 × 5 = 40

\frac{3\times 10}{4\times 10},\frac{7\times 5}{8\times 5},\frac{3\times 8}{5\times 8}

\frac{30}{40},\frac{35}{40},\frac{24}{40}

As now the denominators are common we can easily arrange them in order from least to greatest.

\frac{24}{40}

Distances in order from least to greatest:

,\frac{3}{5}

Find X and Y using the image.
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

x = 59°

y = 130°

Step-by-step explanation:

Find x:

Recall: the measure of an inscribed angle = ½(measure of intercepted arc), based in the inscribed angles theorem

Therefore,

x = ½(118°)

x = 59°

Find y:

y = 2(180 - (56 + x)) => inscribed angles theorem

Plug in the value of x

y = 2(180 - (56 + 59))

y = 2(180 - 115)

y = 2(65)

y = 130°

John can clear a lot in 1.5 hours. His partner can do the same job in 4.5 hours. How long will it take them to clear the lot wor
Arisa [49]

Answer:

1.125 h = 1h 7.5 min = 1 h 7 min 30 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

John makes 1/1.5 work per h.

His partner makes 1/4.5 work per h.

Together they make (1/1.5 + 1/4.5) = (3/4.5 + 1/4.5) = 4/4.5 work per h.

They will work

1 : 4/4.5 = 4.5/4 = 1.125 h = 1 h + 0.125 h = 1h + 0.125h*60min/1h =

=1h 7.5 min = 1 h 7 min 30 sec

For a triangle ot be created the shortest two sides must add up to a number greater than the longest side.  IE 1.6 + 5.9 = 7.5, therefore one triangle CAN be drawn.

However the order of the sides can be clockwise or anti-clockwise so more than one trinagle can be drawn .

Joanna wants to buy a backpack that costs $37.98. The sales tax rate is 8.75%. Estimate the amount of sales tax that Joanna will
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The amount of sales tax Joanna will pay is $3.323

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of the backpack =  $37.98

Sales tax = 8.75%

To Find:

Amount of sales tax that Joanna will pay  = ?

Solution:

Sales tax imposed by the government on the goods that are sold or on the services that is provided. It is collected by the seller who sells the goods

Sales tax  =\frac{\text{sales tax percentage}}{100} \times price

On Substituting the values

Sales tax  = \frac{8.75}{100} \times 37.98

sales tax  = 0.0875 \times 37.98

sales tax  = 3.323
