Adding fractions:
Lets say you have two fractions like 1/2 and 1/3. To add them, you have to make the denominator the same. So we find the least common multiple of 2 and 3, which is 6, so we multiple 1/2 by 3/3 so we have 3/6 without changing the value, and we multiple 1/3  by 2/2 to have 2/6. Then we add the numerators and have 5/6.

Subtraction fractions:
Same thing as adding, just subtracting instead.
Both need to make sure you have the same denominator.

Multiplying fractions:
This is the most simple. All you do is multiply the numerators and the denominators. So if you have 5/6 and 3/4, you multiply the numerators to have 15, the denominators to have 24, and so you have 15/24, simplified to 5/8.

Dividing fractions:
If you have 5/6 divided by 3/4, you flip the 3/4 to 4/3, and you multiply that with 5/6.

4/3 + 4/3 = 8/3
_________________________
5/3 - 4/3 = 1/3
_______________________________

5/3 divided by 4/2

5/3 x 2/4 = 10/12
_______________________________

2/3 + 3/6
4/6 + 3/6 = 7/6

If −6 + 10 = 17, then what is 3 − 5?
Novay_Z [31]
-6 + 10 = 4
but you say the answer is 17?

okay, so let's assume you add 13 to the final answer

3 - 5 = -2
-2 + 13 = 11

This question doesn't make sense

I need to find the value of x for this diagram
Burka [1]
X is 50.  The lengths of the radii extending out from the center to the chords are the same length, therefore, the chords are the same distance from the center and have the same measure.

How to solve this equation by getting a value and b value
goblinko [34]

Answer:

a=±5

Step-by-step explanation:

25=5^2

Given that,  x^2−10x+25=x^2−10x+5^2

Identity: a^2−2(ab)+b^2=(a-b)^2

Here, a=x and b=5

∴=(x−5)^2

Hope this helps
