Step-by-step explanation:
always try to bring fractions you need to compare to the same denominator (bottom number).
we have 9/10 of the pizza left.
then 4/5 if the pizza are eaten.
how to compare 9/10 with 4/5 ?
by bringing 4/5 also to a fraction of 10ths.
what do I need to multiply 5 with to get 10 ?
right, 2.
since we don't want to change the overall value of the original fraction, we need to multiply both levels (numerator and denominator) by that same factor :
4/5 × 2/2 = 8/10
aha !
that we can compare with 9/10.
so, when Lucas ate 4/5 (= 8/10) of the pizza, when there was originally 9/10 left, then we have 1/10 of the pizza left.
Answer:
the awncer to your question is x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Jeff got 20 answers right.
Step-by-step explanation:
The maximum number of points Jeff can get is 100. (25 * 4) However, for each question he gets wrong, he's actually losing 6 points because he doesn't get the four points for getting right, and has the additional -2 points for getting it wrong. Since he only got a score of 70, that means he lost 30 points.
30/6 = 5. So he missed 5 question and got 20 question right.
Answer:
what are the given values for x?
Step-by-step explanation:
i don't know what the given values for x are
but if you know them, here's an example
let's say x=4
y=(4)+2
y=6
Answer:
one solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3(x - 2) = 22 - x ← distribute parenthesis on left side
3x - 6 = 22 - x ( add x to both sides )
4x - 6 = 22 ( add 6 to both sides )
4x = 28 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = 7
