Answer: 35 divided by the difference of 12 and 5
Well, the first thing you would do is find like denominators for each fraction.
Since the smallest common term between the two is 40, that will be your denominator for each. Then you would multiply the numerator by the number your denominator was multiplied to get to 40. So, you would end up with 16/40 because 5*8=40 and 2*8=16 and 5/40 because 8*5=40 and 1*5=5.
After that, you would just subtract them.
16/40 - 5/40 = 11/40 and as a decimal that is 0.275. So, Joe has eaten 0.275 more pizza than Jane.
Hope this helps! :)
20%of £800 is 800÷5 =160
800 + 160 =960
<span>erry starts rowing at 2 pm from the west end of the lake, and Tao starts rowing from the east end of the lake at 2:05 pm.
------
Terry DATA:
rate = 60 meter/min ; time = x min ; distance = r*t = 60x meters
-----
Tao DATA:
rate = 40 meter/min ; time = x-5 min ; distance = r*t = 40(x-5) meters
--------------------------
If they always row directly towards each other at what time will the two meet?
------
Equation:
dist + dist = 2000 meters
60x + 40(x-5) = 2000
20x = 1800
x = 90 minutes

Answer:
x = 4
Explanation:
−2x − 4 + 5x = 8
[ Simplify both sides of the equation ]
−2x − 4 + 5x = 8
−2x + −4 + 5x = 8
(−2x + 5x) + (−4) = 8 (Combine Like Terms)
3x + −4 = 8
3x − 4 = 8
[ Add 4 to both sides ]
3x − 4 + 4 = 8 + 4
3x = 12
[ Divide both sides by 3 ]
3x / 3 = 12 / 3
x = 4
