Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: 9/25
Discussion:
My first observation is that both 36 and 100 are even numbers, so let's divide each by 2.
36/100 = 18/50
Again, 18 and 50 are even numbers so let's divided each by 2
= 18/50 = 9/25
While I didn't write it out, my statement "divide them by 2" is really this:
36/100 = ( 36/2) / (100/2) = (18) /50 = ( 18/2) / (50/2) = 9/25
Confusing, isn't it!
A shorter, but equivalent, approach is to divide the numerator and denominator by 4.

Division property of equality because you divide the same by the same number on both sides of the equation
y < –12
Solution:
Step 1: Given inequality is y + 15 < 3.
To find the solution to the inequality.
Step 2: Subtract –15 on both sides to equal the expression.
⇒ y + 15 –15 < 3 –15
Step 2: Using addition identity property, any number adding with zero gives the number itself.
⇒ y + 0 < –12
⇒ y < –12
Hence the solution to the inequality is y < –12.
Answer:
the perfect squares between 120 and 300 are the squares of numbers from 11 to 17. Clearly, these are 7 in number.
