Answer:

25/24

Step-by-step explanation:

5/12 * 1 = 5/12

1 = 2/2

5/12 * 1 = (5/12) * (2/2) = (5*2)/(12*2) = 10/24

3/3 = 1

5/8 * 1 = (5/8) * (3/3) = (5*3)/(8*3) = 15/24

then:

(5/12) + (5/8) = (10/24) + (15/24) = (10+15) / 24 = 25/24

Answer:

1 1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

5/12 + 5/8

We need a common denominator of 24

Convert the first number to have a denominator of 24

5/12 *2/2 = 10/24

Convert the second number to have a denominator of 24

5/8*3/3 = 15/24

Add the two converted numbers together

10/24 + 15/24

25/24

Change from an improper fraction to a mixed number

24/24 + 1/24

1 1/24

R 3. The mean of 4 numbers is 8. Three of the numbers add up to 22. What is the last number?​
statuscvo [17]
<h2><em><u>Solution</u></em> : </h2>

let the last number be x

we know,

\boxed{mean =  \frac{sum \:  \: of \:  \: all \:  \: observations}{number \:  \: of \:  \: observations} }

So,

\hookrightarrow \: 8 =  \dfrac{22 + x}{4}

\hookrightarrow \: 8 \times 4 = 22 + x

\hookrightarrow \: 32 = 22 + x

\hookrightarrow \: x = 32 - 22

\hookrightarrow \: x = 10

therefore, the last number is 10.

The volume of dry goods like apple or peaches can be measured using bushels, pecks and quarts. A bushel contains 4 pecks and a p
Lisa [10]

Answer: q= 32b

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  A bushel contains 4 pecks and a peck contains 8 quarts.

i.e.  A bush = 4 pecks

A peck = 8 quarts

Then, Number of quarts in 1 bush = 4 (8) =32

Let b = number of bushes and q = number of  quarts

Number of quarts(q) in b bushes = 32b

hence, required equation:q= 32b which describes the relationship between the number of b bushels and the number of q quarts.

Write a two-step equation involving division and addition that has a solution of x=25
zavuch27 [327]
If this is what you mean..?

In order to do this you would work backward from the answer.
You have x = 25 and ant to include and addition. As we are working backwards, we use the opposite operation to addition - subtraction. We'll make it an easy number so we will subtract 15 to get to 10.
So far it looks like 10 = 15 + x
Now, to include  a division, we want to do the opposite again, multiplication. Pick any number to multiply 10 by - for this example we'll choose 7.
7 x 10 = 70
Now we can write out the equation -
70/7 + 15 = x
No brackets are required as Division comes before addition in BIDMAS.


An alternate choice would be to have x the other side of the '='

To do this, multiply x by a number of choice (for example 3) to make the divison section of the equation. This makes 75. This can be written as a fraction. 75/x = 3
Next, for the addition, whatever happens on one side, the exact same happens on the other. Pick any number to add on (e.g. 5) and re-write the equation.
75/x + 5 = 8

Sorry if this doesn't make perfect sense
