Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two ways to do this. You could use your calculator to find out the decimal numbers that are equivalent to the two given fractions. Then check which one of the givens falls between these two numbers. I wouldn't do it that way -- not when you are told that the answer has 56 as the denominator. So ...
The best way to do it is to change the two givens so that they have a denominator of 56
3/7 = 3*8/7*8 = 24 / 56
7*7 / 7*8 = 49 / 46
So you need a number that is between 49 and 24
There is only one 27 / 56
Step-by-step explanation:
a÷b=960÷89=10.78651685=10.79 or 17.8
J is correct. the scale is balanced, so x = 1. there are 9 1’s on the right, and 6 1’s on the left. there are 3 more blocks, and they would have to each be 1.
Is this a glitch or I don’t see a question? I only see dots “……”
Eq. 1 .10x + .25y = 9.45
Eq. 2 x + y = 60 rewrite as x = 60 - y and substitute into equation 1.
.10(60 - y) + .25y = 9.45
6 - .1y + .25y = 9.45
6 + .15y = 9.45
.15y = 3.45
y = 23
60 - 23 = 37
23 quarters
37 dimes
23* .25 = 5.75
37 * .1 = 3.70
5.75 + 3.70 =9.45
