What is the quotient of 4 2/3 divided by 4 1/5 :fraction

2 answers:

8 0

Write the two fractions as improper fractions
4 2/3 is 14/3
<span>4 1/5</span> is 21/5
rewrite
14/3 <span>÷ 21/5
since it is pretty complicated to divide two fractions,
you change it to multiplication
keep the first fraction, change the division sign to multiplication, then flip the second fraction
(you can remember KEEP, CHANGE, FLIP whenever dealing with division of fractions :) )
14/3 * 5/21
multiply across
(14 * 5) / ( 3 * 21)
</span>70/ 63
simplify to 10/9
this can be written as 1 1/9

Hope this helps

Answer:

1 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the two fractions as improper fractions

4 2/3 is 14/3

4 1/5 is 21/5

rewrite

14/3 ÷ 21/5

since it is pretty complicated to divide two fractions,

you change it to multiplication

keep the first fraction, change the division sign to multiplication, then flip the second fraction

(you can remember KEEP, CHANGE, FLIP whenever dealing with division of fractions :) )

14/3 * 5/21

multiply across

(14 * 5) / ( 3 * 21)

70/ 63

simplify to 10/9

this can be written as 1 1/9

What is the simplified form of the quantity of x plus 4, all over the quantity of 7 − the quantity of x plus 3, all over the qua

scoundrel [369]

$\frac{x + 4}{7} -\frac{x + 3}{x + 5} =\frac{(x + 4)(x + 5)}{7(x + 5)} -\frac{7(x + 3)}{7(x + 5)} =\frac{x(x + 5) + 4(x + 5)}{7(x) + 7(5)} - \frac{7(x) + 7(3)}{7(x) + 7(5)} =\frac{x(x) + x(5) + 4(x) + 4(5)}{7x + 35} - \frac{7x + 21}{7x + 35} =\frac{x^{2} + 5x + 4x + 20}{7x + 35} -\frac{7x + 21}{7x + 35} =\frac{x^{2} + 9x + 20}{7x + 35} - \frac{7x + 21}{7x + 35} =\frac{(x^{2} + 9x + 20) - (7x + 21)}{7x + 35} =\frac{x^{2} + (9x - 7x) + (20 - 21)}{7x + 35} =\frac{x^{2} + 2x -1}{7x + 35}$

Two trains leave stations 560 miles apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One train travels at 90 miles per hour

lana [24]

Answer: the two trains will meet in 2.8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Speed of train A = 90mph

Speed of train B = 110 mph

Since both trains are travelling towards each other , their effective speed will be= 90 mph + 110mph= 200mph

Step 2

we know that Speed = distance / time

therefore Time = Distance / speed

Distance = 560 miles

Speed = 200 mph

Time = 560miles / 200mph

2.8 hours
