You have one of the answers correct. The fraction 4/8 is equal to 1/2

Other answers are: 5/10, 10/20, and 6/12

If you reduced each of those fractions, you'd get to 1/2.

You can use a calculator to find that
4/8 = 0.5
1/2 = 0.5
5/10 = 0.5
10/20 = 0.5
6/12 = 0.5
All fractions mentioned lead to the same decimal value, so this confirms all of the fractions are equivalent to one another.

Given a right triangle with sides a = 3 , b = 4, and c = 5. Find the missing side c of another right triangle with a = 6 and b =

horsena [70]

c = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find out the missing side of a right triangle by using the Pythagorean theorem.

The Pythagorean theorem is...

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

We can even double check the first problem by plugging in everything into the theorem and solving, everything will come out correct. We can plug in the numbers from the second problem into the theorem and find c, also please note that the hypotenuse of a triangle will always be c. It doesn't matter which you put in for a or b, but since the problem gives us which one is a and which one is b, I'll just be plugging it in like that.

$6^2+8^2=c^2$

$36+64=c^2$

$100=c^2$

A lot of people will stop here and think that the answer is 100, but you need to find the square root of 100, since c is squared. The square root of 100 is 10, so...

c = 10

4/16+12/16=how to figure out this problems

sesenic [268]

You add the numerators and keep it over the denominator. 4/16 plus 12/16 is 16/16 and when the same number is the denominator and numerator at the same time, its 1

1,000 darts were thrown at the rectangular board shown here. If 159 darts hit the circle, which of the following is most likely

Ludmilka [50]

The probability would be $\frac{159}{1000}$ ,
Simplify and turn into ratio.
0.159 : 1.

I am unsure what the full question was though.

Hope this helps.
