When multiplying fractions just multiply the numerator and denominators together, then simplify the fraction you get.
To solve the addition problem, first convert 2 and 1/2 to an improper fraction. It should be 5/2. Now 3/8 and 5/2 must be added together.
To add these, they must have the same denominator. Let's give 5/2 a denominator of 8, so it matches 3/8.
To give 5/2 a denominator of 8, you are starting with a denominator of 2. 2 × 4 = 8, so you must multiply 5/2 by 4.
You should get 20/8. Now you have to add 20/8 and 3/8. The only thing you add is the numerator, so you should get 23/8 as a final answer.
For the subtraction problem, do these same steps to make the fractions you must subtract have the same denominator, then subtract only the numerator to get the answer. Once you solve the subtraction problem, text me what you got so I can check it for you. :)
Answer:
difference in volume = 26.96h cm³
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a prism is the product of the base area and the height. A trapezoid prism has a trapezium as the base shape. Therefore,
volume of a trapezoid prism = area of a trapezium × height
area of the base(trapezoid) = 140 cm²
Volume = 140h
Volume of a cylinder = πr²h
where
r = radius
h = height
volume = πr²h
volume = π × 6² × h
volume = 3.14 × 36 × h
volume = 113.04h
To know how much larger the volume of the prism is than the volume of the cylinder we have to take the difference of the volume.
Recall the height are the same
difference in volume = 140h - 113.04h
difference in volume = 26.96h cm³
Answer:
There are 1,680 Girls
Step-by-step explanation:
1 ratio = 240
5 ratio = 1,200
7 ratio = 1,680
Therefore, 5:7 = 1,200 : 1,680
