What number should be added to 7/12 to get 4/15?

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number = x.

We are trying to find out what number (x) we would need to add to 7/12 to get 4/15

$\frac{7}{12} + x = \frac{4}{15}$

Subtract 7/12 from both sides.

$x = \frac{4}{15} - \frac{7}{12}$

We need to make the denominators of the fractions the same.

$\frac{4}{15} = \frac{16}{60}$

$\frac{7}{12} = \frac{35}{60}$

So,

$x = \frac{16}{60} - \frac{35}{60} = - \frac{19}{60}$

PLEASE HELP!!! Division

krok68 [10]

The answer is 36/49.

You take the second fraction and flip it (it will be 12/14) and you multiply straight across. You get 72/98. You simplify it by finding it's greatest common factor (in this case it is 2) so you divide it the numerator and the denominator by 2. You get 36/49.

Three consecutive even numbers add up to a number between 100 and 120 what might the number be?

Rzqust [24]

<span>The number can be 102, 108, or 114. They can all be formed that way.

32 + 34 + 36 = 102
34 + 36 + 38 = 108
36 + 38 + 40 = 114

</span>The n<span>ext one is 120 . . . . . 38 + 40 + 42</span>
