When we multiply a whole number with a fraction, we can think of the whole numbers as "over one"...
5 3 5 15
3 * --- = --- * ---- = ----
6 1 6 6
We can further simplify the fraction, by dividing numerator and denominator by 3...
15 15 / 3 5
--- = ------- = ----
6 6 / 3 2
Since this is an improper fraction, we need to turn it into a mixed number...
5 2 + 2 + 1 2 2 1 1 1
---- = -------------- = --- + ---- + --- = 1 + 1 + ---- = 2 --- or 2.5
2 2 2 2 2 2 2
Answer:
assume an approximate value for the variable that will simplify the equation.
solve for the variable.
use the answer as the second approximate value and solve the equation again.
repeat this process until a constant value for the variable is obtained.
Any value as long as P = Q
For the equation to have infinitely many solutions, we require both sides of the equation to have exactly the same terms.
Answer:
$128
Step-by-step explanation:
your looking for 16/8, divide 16 by 3, leaving you with 5.333...
now times that by $24, and you have your answer hope this helps
