Rewrite the equation below so that it does not have fractions four -4/9 times equals two over three do not use decimals in your

Rama09 [41]

The equation is 36 - 4x = 6.

Solution:

To write the equation without fraction.

$$4-\frac{4}{9} x=\frac{2}{3}$

$$\frac{4}{1} -\frac{4}{9} x=\frac{2}{3}$

The denominators must be same to add/subtract the fractions.

LCM of 1, 9 and 3 = 9.

Multiply first term by $\frac{9}{9}$ and $\frac{2}{3}$ by $\frac{3}{3}$ to make the denominator same.

$$\frac{4\times9}{1\times9} -\frac{4}{9} x=\frac{2\times3}{3\times3}$

$$\frac{36}{9} -\frac{4}{9} x=\frac{6}{9}$

$$\frac{36-4x}{9} =\frac{6}{9}$

Multiply by 9 on both sides.

$$\frac{36-4x}{9}\times9 =\frac{6}{9}\times9$

Both 9 in the numerator and denominator get canceled.

36 - 4x = 6

This term does not have fraction.

Hence the equation is 36 - 4x = 6.

What is the difference in length between a 11/4 inch button and a 3/8 inch button

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

$\frac{19}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply the two denominators together to get the shared denominator, which will allow you to actually subtract the two numbers. 4 × 8 = 32, so the shared denominator will be 32.

Then, cross-multiply. 11 × 8 = 88, so $\frac{11}{4}$ becomes $\frac{88}{32}$ . 3 × 4 = 12, so $\frac{3}{8}$ becomes $\frac{12}{32}$ .

Now, you can subtract. $\frac{88}{32} -\frac{12}{32} =\frac{76}{32}$

Finally, simplify. $\frac{76}{32} =\frac{19}{8}$ . The final difference is $\frac{19}{8}$ .
