Their sum can be greater than 1 but it would be less than 2.

The biggest fraction which is less than 1 is 0.99

Sum of 0.99 + 0.99 = 1.98, which is greater than 1 but less than 2.

The sum can be greater than 1, but not two. For example say the fractions are, 3/4 and 5/6, the total is , 1 7/12. Which is greater than 1 but not two. It cannot be greater than 2 because fractions are a part of 1.UNLESS, it is a mixed number fractions, than they can be infinitely great. Such as 123 3/4 + 45 2/4 is definitely greater than 2.

a washer and dryer cost $586 combined. the washer costs $64 less than the dryer. what is the cost of the dryer?
oksano4ka [1.4K]
Hello!

*I'm not very good at algebra, so I am not 100% sure this is correct!*

w = cost of washer

d = cost of dryer

w + d = $586

w = d - 64

d - 64 + d = 586

2d = 586 + 64

2d = 650

d = 650 / 2 = 325

586 - 325 = 261

Check 325 - 261 = 64

So, the dryer costs $325 and because the washer is $64 less than the dryer, it costs $261.

Nat2105 [25]
In the ratio, the numbers are 2 for the shortest side, 3 for the middle sized side, and 4 for the longest side.

2 is to 6 cm as 4 is to x

2/6 = 4/x

2x = 4 * 6

2x = 24

x = 12

Answer: The longest side measures 12 cm.
