In order to reduce ANY fraction to lowest terms, find any common factors
of the numerator and denominator, and divide them both by it.  If they still
have a common factor, then divide them by it again.  Eventually, they won't
have any common factor except ' 1 ', and then you'll know that the fraction is
in lowest terms.

Do  15  and  40  have any common factors ?
Let's see . . .

The factors of  15  are  1,  3,  <em>5</em>, and  15 .
The factors of  40  are  1,  2,  4,<em>  5</em>,  8,  10,  20, and  40 .

Ah hah !  Do you see that ' <em>5</em> ' on both lists ?  That's a common factor.

So  15/40  is NOT in lowest terms.

Divide the numerator and denominator both by  5 :

       15 / 40  =<em>  3 / 8</em>

3  and  8  don't have any common factor except ' 1 '. 
So  3/8  is the same number as  15/40, but in lowest terms.

To find out the percentage, just like with the average, you need to add up all the numbers which is 60. Now you have to find the probability of 2 cars in a line, you would have to divide, 16/60, Which is about .27, now you have to convert to percentage, which is 27%

The drawing shows a heart-shaped figure. The heart is composed of a square and two semicircles. The semicircles have the center
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Area = πx² + x² or x²(π + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the heart = area of a circle + area of the square

Note:

1. The 2 semicircles makes 1 full circle

2. The diameter of the circle = the side length of the square

Thus:

Area of the heart = πr² + s²

Where,

r = x

s = x

Formula for area of the heart = π(x²) + x² = πx² + x²

Area = x²(π + 1)
