2/3 = 8/12 (GCD of 3 and 4 is 12. 3 * 4 = 12, 2 * 4 = 8)

1/4 = 3/12 (4 * 3 = 12, 1 * 3 = 3)

8/12 - 3/12 = 5/12

You ate 5/12 of the pie

I'm not sure if this really helps anyone that reads it, but that's how I was taught. You can correct me if I'm wrong.

P.S. I know I'm late for it

If you took \frac{2}{3} of a pie then only ate \frac{1}{4} of that slice, you ate \frac{1}{4} of \frac{2}{3}.

\frac{2}{3} * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{2}{12}

Simplify.

\frac{2}{12} = \frac{1}{6}

So, you ate 1/6 of the pie.

What is the solution of the following system?
erica [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: both lines are the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

                                   

                                             3x + 3y = 10

                                            -9x -9y = -30

Elimination method

                                            9x + 9x = 30

                                           -9x -  9y = -30

                                              0     0      0

I am needing to know the answer to 3/7 of what number is 9?
kolezko [41]
In math, "of" almost always means "times".

So your question is:  3/7 times (the number) = 9

Multiply each side of that equation by  7 :   3 times (the number) = 63

Divide each side by 3 :             <em> The number = 21</em>
