How to add fractions? with unlike denominators

Mathematics
1 answer:
stellarik [79]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The recipe calls for 19/12 or 1 7/9 cups.


Step-by-step:

In order to get this answer, we have to add all three fractions together. First, we have to find the LCM (Least Common Multiple) between the three denominators:

2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12

3: 3,6,9,12

4: 4,8,12

The LCM between these three denominators is 12.

4x3=12

2x6=12

3x4=12

You now multiply the numerator by the same number you multiplied by for the denominator in order to get 12:

3/4 becomes 9/12

1/2 becomes 6/12

1/3 becomes 4/12

We now add all the fractions together:

9/12+6/12+4/12= 19/12

We got 19/12 but the answer is an improper fraction so we turn it into a mixed number:

12x1=12 (7 remaining)

This is written as 1 7/12.

Hope this helps! :)

The given inequality is y ≥ |x + 2| -3.

This inequality may be written two ways:
(a) y ≥ x + 2 - 3
    or
    y ≥ x - 1

(b) y ≥ -x -2 - 3
    or
     y ≥ -x - 5

A graph of the inequality is shown below. The shaded region satisfies the inequality.

Answer: A shaded region above a solid boundary line.

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Using the mean concept, it is found that:

Relative to Sabrina's goal, her average swim time over the last five weeks is 0.1 hours.

-----------------------

The mean of a data-set is given by the <u>sum of all observations divided by the number of observations</u>.

In this problem:

  • The data-set is her swim time relative to her goal, which is: {1.25, -1, 2.25, 0, -2.}
  • 5 observations.

Thus, the mean is:

M = \frac{1.25 - 1 + 2.25 + 0 - 2}{5} = 0.1

Relative to Sabrina's goal, her average swim time over the last five weeks is 0.1 hours.

If two sweaters and four shirts cost $150, and four sweaters and three shirts cost $200, find the price of each shirt and each s
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

shirt = $20

sweater = $35

Step-by-step explanation:

This question would be solved using simultaneous equation

Let the price of sweater be represented by a

Let the price of shirt be represented by b

The following equations can be derived from the question

2a + 4b = 150   equation 1

4a + 3b = 200   equation 2

Multiply equation 1 by 2

4a + 8b = 300    equation 3

Subtract equation 2 from 3

5b = 100

divide both sides of the equation by 5

b = 20

substitute for b in equation 1

2a + 4(20) = 150

2a + 80 = 150

collect like terms

2a = 150 - 80

2a = 70

divide both sides by 2

a = 35

Price of sweater = $35

Price of shirt = $20

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><u><em>t</em></u>

  1. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Isolate <em>t</em> terms:                                        7 = 2 + 2t
  2. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Isolate <em>t</em> term:                                         5 = 2t
  3. [Division Property of Equality] Isolate <em>t</em>:                                                        5/2 = t
  4. Rewrite:                                                                                                             t = 5/2
