9/16+ 1/2
= 9/16+ (1*8) / (2*8) 
= 9/16+ 8/16 (common denominator is 16)
= (9+8)/16
= 17/16
= (16+1)/16
= 16/16+ 1/16
= 1+ 1/16
= 1 1/16

The final answer is 1 1/16~

So you have to make them fractions with common denominators. Obviously they aren't yet. So, what number can bboth 16 and 2 go into? 16.

9/16 can stay as is, but we need to multiply 1/2 until we get ?/16.
2*8=16
Since we now have 16 on the bottom, we need to multiply the top by 8 too.
1*8=8
So your final fraction is 8/16.
But we aren't done yet. You still need to add the fractions to gether.
9/16 + 8/16 = 17/16 --> This can be simplified further down to 1 1/16.

I hope this helps!

Find the area hurry plss
erica [24]

Answer:

114m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

At first it looks like you can split this into 3 rectangles, but the easier way is to subtract the area that is cut out from the larger rectangle. In this image, we have an outer rectangle that measures 12m x 14m. In the middle, there is a 9x6 rectangular hole. Subtract the area of the hole from the total area of the rectangle.

Total area = 12 * 14 = 168

Area of hole = 6 * 9 = 54

Area left = Total area - Area of hole

              = 168 - 54

              = 114m^2

Answer:

It will take Josie 80 minutes to run 10 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion between the number of minutes she runs to the number of miles she runs. From what we know in the equation, we know that it takes her 24 minutes to run 3 miles, and it takes x minutes to run 10 miles. We can represent this in a proportion!

We know that the ratio of 24:3 will be the same for any number of miles, so we can say

\frac{24}{3} =\frac{x}{10\\}

We can solve this by first simplifying the left hand side then isolation x by multiple both sides of the equation by 10.

24/3 = 8

8 = \frac{x}{10}

80 = x

It will take Josie 80 minutes to run 10 miles.
