Answer: 1/3 is closer to 1/4 than to 1/2

Step-by-step explanation: 1/2, 1/3, and 1/4. Lets get the denominators the same. We must multiply 1/2 by 6, 1/3 by 4, 1/4 by 3. Now all the fractions look like this: 1/2=6/12, 1/3=4/12, 1/4=3/12. So the question is "is 4/12 closer to 3/12, or 6/12?". I hope that Answers your question :).

When the numerator is larger than the denominator, we take groups of whole fractions (The numerator and denominator are equal) and add 1 to the whole number for each group. Whatever remains when we no longer have the numerator larger than the denominator is left as a fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

6 3/4 + 3 2/3

We need to get a common denominator

The common denominator is 12

We need to rename the fractional parts to out of 12

6 3/4 = 6 3/4*3/3 = 6 9/12

3 2/3 = 3 2/3*4/4 = 3 8/12

6 9/12+ 3 8/12

9 17/12

But the numerator is larger than the denominator

We take 12/12 from the fraction and add it to the whole number

9 17/12-12/12 +1

9+1 5/12

10 5/12

Answer:

The lateral Area of a cube $= 17.64in^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In Mathematics Geometry, the lateral surface of a solid object like cube would be the face of the sold on its side, excluding base. Meaning, any surface, apart from base, would be included to determine the lateral surface of the solid.

A cube has six sides - also called faces.

A cube has a base i.e. the bottom side of the cube, and an ant-bottom base i.e. the top side of the cube.

So, lateral area of a cube would exclude both bottom side base and anti-bottom side base. In other words, it is the area of all the sides of the object, excluding the area of its base and top.

Hence, lateral area of a cube is the square of all the remaining four sides of the object, excluding the area of its base and top.

Hence, the lateral area of a cube can be calculated by the formula:

Lateral Area of a cube $= 4s^{2}$ , where s is the length of one edge.

So,

As the given length of edge = s = 2.1

So,

lateral Area of a cube $= 4s^{2}$

$= 4(2.1)^{2}$

$= 17.64in^{2}$

Keywords: cube, lateral area

Based on the following equation. what is the radius of this circle? <br> (x-3)+(y+2)^2=4

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

r = 2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

(x - 3)² + (y + 2)² = 4 ← is in standard form

with r² = 4 ⇒ r = $\sqrt{4}$ = 2
