Mario painted 2/6 of the wall in his bedroom. Mei Lyn painted 2/4 of a wall in her bedroom.

1 answer:

4 0

Well I am assuming you want to compare them or something so yeah:

You have to find a common denominator of 4 & 6, so you could multiply them together, this makes 24. Because you have to do the same thing to the top and the bottom, you have to multiply 2/4 (which is now 2/24) by 6, and the 2/6 (which again is 2/24) by 4 which leaves you with 12/24 (2/4) and 8/24 (2/6).

We can simplify these fractions by dividing them, but as you may know 12 is half of 24 so 12/24 would also be 1/2.
If you keep dividing by 2 you will find that 8/24 is also equal to 1/3. This is easier to find out by the beginning number but I mentioned it anyway because I didn't understand what you were asking.

Overall if you noticed when comparing 2/4 and 2/6 we found that Mei Lyn painted more wall than Mario.

A composite number has more than two factors. (B) 21 is a composite number because the factors of 21 are 7 × 3.

Find the length of side x in simplest radical form with a rational denominator

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

x = √(10)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the measure of the side marked x

what we have is an isosceles right triangle since the two acute angles of the right triangle are 45 degrees each

Hence, the other last side will measure x too

Mathematically, according to Pythagoras’; the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

Thus;

x^2 + x^2 = (√5)^2

2x^2 = 5

x^2 = 5/2

x = √(5/2)

x = √5/√2

Rationalizing the denominator;

x = (√2 * √5)/(√2 * √2)

x = √10/2

Wendy is creating a large soup based on a recipe. Her recipe calls for of a pint of milk, but she only has of a pint of milk, so

xeze [42]

Answer:

She can only make 5/6 of her recipe with the amount of milk that she has.

Step-by-step explanation:

Some data of this problem is missing, the data missing is:

Her recipe calls for 3/4 of a pint of milk and she only has 5/8 of a pint of milk.

Now, to know what's the portion she can do with that amount we need to divide the amount of milk she has by the total amount she needs:

$\frac{5}{8}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{4}$

When we divide we turn the second fraction upside down (the numerator becomes the denominator and viceversa) and multiply, thus:

$\frac{5}{8}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{4}=\frac{5}{8}$ × $\frac{4}{3} =\frac{20}{24}$

If we simplify this last expression we have:

$\frac{20}{24}=\frac{10}{12} =\frac{5}{6}$

Thus, she can only make 5/6 of her recipe with the amount of milk that she has.

Note: In case the data missing is different, you can apply this same procedure with the fractions you have.

What is the volume of the cylinder? Round your answer to the nearest whole number??

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

141

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The volume of a cylinder is $\pi r^2h$ , where r = radius and h = height. In this case, the height is 5 feet and the radius is 3 feet.

Solving Volume

Step 1: Plug in values

$\pi * 3^2 * 5$

Step 2: Simplify.

$3.14 * 9 * 5$
$28.26 * 5$
$141.3$
141.3 ≈ 141

Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is 141 ft^3 (but don't put ft^3, as mentioned in the problem).

Have a lovely rest of your day/night, and good luck with your assignments! ♡
