Step-by-step explanation:
-2/3 = -.66
-3/5 = -.60
-1/2 = -.50
5/8 = .625
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem deals with fractions comparison, lets do it:
21/30 > 2/3
we begin solving:
21 > (2/3)*30
21 > 2*10
<span>21 > 20
</span>therefore the proposed inequality is true, <span>21/30 > 2/3
You can solve as well getting same denominator for both fractions and comparing directly, in this case we need to get 2/3 to be divided by 30:
2/3 = (10/10)(2/3) = 20/30
So we have:
</span><span>21/30 > 2/3
</span>which is equal to:
<span>21/30 > 20/30
</span>and we compare directly because both fractions are divided by the same number, and we can see that the inequality is true.
Basically, we need to find the lowest common multiple of 6 and 9....and that would be 18.
so 18 minutes from 4 p.m. is 4:18 p.m. <===
