Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 - 1/2

we can see that the denominators have the values of 3 and 2.

We find that the LCM of these 2 numbers is 6, hence we can express both fractions using a denominator of 6

2/3 = 4/6 (by multiplying both numerator and denominator by 2)

1/2 = 3/6 (by multiplying both numerator and denominator by 3)

hence

2/3 - 1/2

= 4/6 - 3/6

= (4-3) / 6

= 1/6

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

A) Each pack of folders has a volume of 60 cubic inches.

B) The box has a volume of about 720 cubic inches

D) If the box help 20 packs of folders, it would have a volume of about 1,200 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Verify each statement

A) Each pack of folders has a volume of 60 cubic inches.

The statement is True

Because

The volume of each pack of folders is equal to

$V=(5)(12)(1)=60\ in^{3}$

B) The box has a volume of about 720 cubic inches

The statement is True

Because

The volume of the box is equal to the volume of one pack of folders multiplied by 12

$V=(12)60=720\ in^{3}$

C) If the box held 15 packs of folders, it would have a volume of about 1,200 cubic inches

The statement is False

Because

Applying proportion

$\frac{12}{720}\frac{packs}{in^{3}}=\frac{15}{x}\frac{packs}{in^{3}}\\ \\x=720*15/12\\ \\x=900\ in^{3}$

$900\ in^{3}\neq 1,200\ in^{3}$

D) If the box help 20 packs of folders, it would have a volume of about 1,200 cubic inches.

The statement is True

Because

Applying proportion

$\frac{12}{720}\frac{packs}{in^{3}}=\frac{20}{x}\frac{packs}{in^{3}}\\ \\x=720*20/12\\ \\x=1,200\ in^{3}$

$1,200\ in^{3}= 1,200\ in^{3}$

E) Each pack of folders has a volume of 24 cubic inches.

The statement is False

Because

The volume of each pack of folders is equal to

$V=(5)(12)(1)=60\ in^{3}$
