You can compare them mentally! A fraction ia divided into 2 parts, however a decimal is not! Also the strategies you have to use are different. When finding the product/sum/quotient of a fraction you need to find a common denominator. But, with a decimal all you need to do is place the decimals correctly!
-7x+12-2x=23+13x
First take away 13x from the right side and put it on the left side adding taking it away from -7x
-7x(-13x)=-20x
-20x+12-2x=23
then add 2x to -20x
and move 12 to the other side, minus it off of 23
-18x=11
then divide -18x on both sides
then x=-11/18
Answer:
I do believe The Answer Is 0.625
To do this, you can just multiply across. 3 times 1 equals 3 so your numerator is 3. 2 times 4 equals 8. Then, your answer would be 3/8. Hope this helps :)
Let required distance be x km
24x
---- = 360
100
x = (100*360) / 24 = 1500 km Answer
