You put the whole number on top of 1, it doesnt change its value. then you simplify across like in a butterfly only if needed then you multiply across from left to right.

When multiplying fractions and whole numbers, you either turn the fraction into a decimal, or the whole number into a fraction.

For example, the solution for 2/5(8) can be found by turning 2/5 into a decimal (0.4) and multiplying that by 8, or by turning 8 into a fraction (8/1) and multiplying those together.
You will get 3.2 and 16/5. 16/5 can be simplified to be 3 1/5, or 3.2. As you can see, either method works and will give you the same answer.

In the diagram AB =AD and
Greeley [361]

Answer:

AC ≅ AE

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the SAS Congruence Theorem, for two triangles to be considered equal or congruent, they both must have 2 corresponding sides that are of equal length, and 1 included corresponding angle that is of the same measure in both triangles.

Given that in ∆ABC and ∆ADE, AB ≅ AD, and <BAC ≅ DAE, <em>the additional information we need to prove that ∆ABC ≅ ADE is AC ≅ AE. </em>This will satisfy the SAS Congruence Theorem. As there would be 2 corresponding sides that are congruent, and 1 corresponding angle in both triangles that are congruent to each other.
