To solve this, all you have to do is add 1/5 and 1/3.
Well, you might be thinking, "But the denominators are not the same! Fractions have to have like denominators in order to be added together!" And you are right. So, all we have to do, is make them both have the same denominator. To do this, we have to multiply both the numerator and denominator by the same number to find an equivalent fraction.
For 1/5, we can multiply both the numerator and denominator by 3, to get 3/15.
Likewise, we can multiply both the numerator and denominator of 1/3 by 5, to get 5/15.
Now, you can easily add 3/15 and 5/15 because all you have to do is add the numerators, because the denominators are the same!
3/15+5/15=8/15, so she spends 8/15 hour on her math and social studies homework.
Hope I helped!
Answer:
p = 11.2
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Data provided in the question
2.6(5.5p – 12.4) = 127.92
Now
Distributive Propertyis
14.3p - 32.24 = 127.92
Addition Property is
14.3p = 127.92 + 32.24
Division Property is
14.3p ÷ 14.3 = 160.16 ÷ 14.3
p = 11.2
We simply find the value of p by applying the distributive property, addition property, and the division property and the same is to be considered

Step-by-step explanation:
the perimeter is the sum of the 3 sides of the triangle
add the parts of the ratio 21 + 8 + 14 = 43
divide the perimeter by 43 to find the value of one part of the ratio
= 5 ft ← 1 part of the ratio, hence
21 parts = 21 × 5 = 105 ft
8 parts = 8 × 5 = 40 ft
14 parts = 14 × 5 = 70 ft
the 3 sides of the triangle are 105 ft, 40 ft and 70 ft
Your answer for this is 86.49
