65/80 can be reduced to 13/16.

So, it says that there are 80 M&M candies in a bowl. 15 are orange, so that means the others aren't orange. So, then you would do (the total number of  M&M candies in the bowl)-(the number of orange M&M candies)=The number of M&M candies that are not orange. So, 80-15=65.
So, they are 65/80 in the bowl that aren't orange. But we aren't done yet. We need to find the lowest term for 65/80. First, we'll need to find what can go into 65 and 80 evenly without leaving a remainder. Yes, you guessed it, five can go into 65 and 80 without leaving a remainder. So, 65 divided by 5=13 and 80 divided by 5=16. So, your final answer is 13/16. 
13/16 is the final answer. This is the lowest possible term for the number pf candies that aren't orange.
65/80=13/16
13/16 are the number of M&M candies that aren't orange.
Hope I helped.

What must you assume when you use a rate for a prediction? (Please Help!! I'm in 6th grade and this is math.)
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

For anything to do with force you have to assume an even amount of force is spread out evenly. But for things like growing rate you have all those variables so you can't assume a constant growing rate like acceleration.
