Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
6-3/19-7 =3/12 =1/4
Translation to the left by 4 units
Well you need first 1 2/4 of a yard. Then you will need 5/6 of a yard. But first you need to put them together. So we need to find the common denominator. Six and four both share which multiple? Twelve. So let's rewrite that. You need 1 6/12 yards + 10/12 yards of wrapping paper. But before we do anything else we need to fix the mixed number. 1 6/12 isn't as easy to add ad 18/12 is. So 18/12 + 10/12 = 28/12
That can simplify as well. Now it's 14/6 which is equivalent to the fraction we had before. But it can also go down to 2 2/6. Now we can simplify it even further. By dividing it by two we can get 2 1/3. These are the measurements we need. So you would need how many thirds? Seven. (2 1/3 is seven thirds) This is your final answer.
You would need to have seven peices of wrapping paper cut to wrap both gift boxes.
Answer: x=3 units. Perimeter:22 units
Step-by-step explanation:
P=perimeter
3x-1=2x+2
x-1=2
x=3 units
P=3x-1+2x+2+2x
P=3(3)-1+2(3)+2+2(3)
P=9-1+6+2+6
P=8+8+6
P=22 units
