Answer:

2\frac{1}{4}x+\left(4\frac{1}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \:2\frac{3}{5} = \frac{47x-36}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

2\frac{1}{4}x+\left(4\frac{1}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \:2\frac{3}{5}

Simplifying the expression

\frac{1}{4}x+\left(4\frac{1}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \:2\frac{3}{5}

\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fractions}:\quad 2\frac{1}{4}=\frac{9}{4}

\frac{9}{4}x+\left(4\frac{1}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \frac{13}{5}

\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fractions}:\quad 2\frac{3}{5}=\frac{13}{5}

\frac{9}{4}x+\left(4\frac{1}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \frac{13}{5}

\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fractions}:\quad 4\frac{1}{3}=\frac{13}{3}

\frac{9}{4}x+\left(\frac{13}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \frac{13}{5}

\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fractions}:\quad 7\frac{4}{5}=\frac{39}{5}

\frac{9}{4}x+\left(\frac{13}{3}x-\frac{39}{5}\right)\div \frac{13}{5}

As

\frac{9}{4}x=\frac{9x}{4}

and

\frac{\frac{13}{3}x-\frac{39}{5}}{\frac{13}{5}}=\frac{5\cdot \frac{65x-117}{15}}{13}

So,

\frac{9x}{4}+\frac{5\cdot \frac{65x-117}{15}}{13}

\mathrm{Least\:Common\:Multiplier\:of\:}4,\:13:\quad 52

\mathrm{Adjust\:Fractions\:based\:on\:the\:LCM}

\frac{117x}{52}+\frac{\frac{4\left(65x-117\right)}{3}}{52}

\mathrm{Since\:the\:denominators\:are\:equal,\:combine\:the\:fractions}:\quad \frac{a}{c}\pm \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\pm \:b}{c}

\mathrm{Join}\:117x+\frac{4\left(65x-117\right)}{3}:\quad \frac{611x-468}{3}

\frac{\frac{611x-468}{3}}{52}

\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{\frac{b}{c}}{a}=\frac{b}{c\:\cdot \:a}

\frac{611x-468}{3\cdot \:52}

\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:3\cdot \:52=156

\frac{611x-468}{156}

\mathrm{Factor}\:611x-468:\quad 13\left(47x-36\right)

\frac{13\left(47x-36\right)}{156}

\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:13

\frac{47x-36}{12}

Therefore, 2\frac{1}{4}x+\left(4\frac{1}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \:2\frac{3}{5} = \frac{47x-36}{12}

Which expressions are equivalent to (4⋅a)⋅2 ?
shusha [124]

Answer:

4⋅(a⋅2)  

2⋅(4⋅a)

8a

Step-by-step explanation:

(4⋅a)⋅2


4⋅(a⋅2)  This is the same by the  associative property of multiplication


2⋅(4⋅a)  This is the same by the  associative property of multiplication and the communicative property of multiplication


4⋅2⋅a⋅2   This brings in an extra 2 so it is not the same.


8a    4*2 = 8 so this is the same


4⋅2+a⋅2  This is the not the same   8+2a  is not the same as 8a

HELP ASAP PLEASE!!! AND PLEASE SHOW WORK 1. 20% OF ____= 40 2. 30% OF ____=90
lesya692 [45]

Answer: 1. 200, 2. 300

Step-by-step explanation:

40 * 10/2 = 400/2 = 200

or this way:

40 = 20%

40/2 = 20

20 = 10%

20 * 10 = 200

——————————————

90 * 10/3 = 900/3 = 300

or this way:

90 = 30%

90/3 = 30

30 = 10%

30 * 10 = 300
