He used 11/12 of sugar.
(1) I multiplied the factors and denominators by eachothers denominators
(2) I ended up with the two converted fractions: 8/12 and 3/12. The reason for this step is because if the two fractions have the smae denominator, it helps make it easier to add the fraction.
(3) I added the fractions, getting the sum of 11/12
Good question!
Answer:
40 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Same premise as the other question. 12 ÷ 2 = 6 (for the double dashes) and 8 ÷ 2 = 4 (for the single dashes). Add all the numbers up:
3x+2 (5x-1)=11
3x +10x -2=11
3x+10x=13
13x=13
X=1
Answer: Each fraction is greater than the previous fraction.
Step-by-step explanation:
The fractions given are:
2/3, 4/6, 8/12, 16/24
Note that
2/3 = 4/6 = 8/12 = 16/32
The Fractions are all equal. Each fraction is equivalent to 2/3
The pattern used here is:
2/3 × 2/2 = 4/6
4/6 × 2/2 = 8/12
8/12 × 2/2 = 16/24
16/24 × 2/2 = 32/48
Each fraction is equal to the previous fraction in the pattern multiplied by 2/2
Also, the next fraction in the pattern is 32/48.
The statement that "Each fraction is greater than the previous fraction" is incorrect. The fractions are all equal.
The answer is b
Hope this helps
