Answer:12 x 3/7 is larger than 6 x 3/7.

12x3/7=36/7 while 6x3/7=18/7 since both fractions 36/7 and 18/7 have the same denominators, to know which is larger we just check the numerator,the fraction with the largest numerator is largest which is 36/7

Step-by-step explanation:

12x3/7=(12x3)/7=36/7

6x3/7=(6x3)/7=18/7

36/7 is larger than 18/7

Hernan cuts a board that is 7/10 of a meter long After the cut the board is 3/10 of a meter long how long is the piece that he c

Darina [25.2K]

Given that original lenght of the board before cut $= \frac{7}{10}$ meter

Lenght of the board that is left after cutting from the original piece by Hernan $= \frac{3}{10}$ meter

Now we have to find the lenght of the piece which is cut.

To find that we just need to subtract smaller piece from larger piece

Required Length $= \frac{7}{10}-\frac{3}{10}$ meter

Required Length $= \frac{7-3}{10}$ meter

Required Length $= \frac{4}{10}$ meter

reduce the fraction

Required Length $= \frac{2}{5}$ meter

Hence final answer is $\frac{2}{5}$ meter.

Write a function rule in terms of x and y for the line that contains the points (-7.4, -9.7) and ( 8.4, 6.1) .

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

y = x + -2.3

x = -y - 2.3 (but why would one need this?...)

Step-by-step explanation:

(6.1 - (-9.7))/(8.4 - (-7.4)) = 15.8/15.8 = 1

6.1 = 8.4 + b

b = -2.3

Find each quotient. Write in simplest form. keep answer as fraction - not decimal

kirill [66]

So we are given the expression:

$\frac{mn^{2}}{4}$ ÷ $\frac{m^{2}n}{8}$

When we divide fractions, we must flip the second term and change the sign to multiplication:

$\frac{mn^{2}}{4} *\frac{8}{m^{2}n}$

And then we multiply across:

$\frac{mn^{2}}{4} *\frac{8}{m^{2}n}= \frac{8mn^{2}}{4m^{2}n}$

Then we can break apart all of the like variables for simplification:

$\frac{8mn^{2}}{4m^{2}n}=\frac{8}{4} * \frac{m}{m^{2}} *\frac{n^{2}}{n}$

When we simplify variables through division, we subtract the exponent of the numerator from the exponent of the denominator. So we then have:

$\frac{8}{4} =2$

$\frac{m}{m^{2}}=m^{-1} =\frac{1}{m}$

$\frac{n^{2}}{n}=n^{1}=\frac{n}{1}$

So then we multiply all of these simplified parts together:

$\frac{2}{1}*\frac{1}{m}*\frac{n}{1} =\frac{2n}{m}$

So now we know that the simplified form of the initial expression is: $\frac{2n}{m}$ .
