Determine the ratio of defective telephones
ratio = 9/30
ratio = 3/10
3 of 10 telephones are defective
Determine the number of defective telephones each day
def telephone = ratio of defective × total production
def telephone = 3/10 × 1000
def telephone = 300
There are 300 defective telephones each day

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction
3.1 Subtracting a fraction from a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 4 as the denominator :
p p • 4
p = — = —————
1 4
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
3.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
p • 4 - (1) 4p - 1
——————————— = ——————

When a fraction equals zero :
6.1 When a fraction equals zero ...
Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.
Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.
Here's how:
2•(2p-11)
————————— • 4 = 0 • 4
4
Now, on the left hand side, the 4 cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.
The equation now takes the shape :
2 • (2p-11) = 0
Equations which are never true:
6.2 Solve : 2 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solving a Single Variable Equation:
6.3 Solve : 2p-11 = 0
Add 11 to both sides of the equation :
2p = 11
Divide both sides of the equation by 2:
p = 11/2 = 5.500
To know if which equation is equivalent to <span>5x-2(7x+1)=14x, what we are going to do is to simplify it with its similar terms.
Firstly, we multiply -2 by 7x + 1 and we get -14x -2.
Now, it will look like this.
5x-14x-2 = 14x
Then, -9x-2 = 14x.
Therefore, the correct answer would be option A. Hope this answer helps. </span>
