Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Factor out the common term 
Step 2: Add the whole numbers
Step 3: Combine the fractions:
Step 4: Convert the improper fractions to mixed numbers
Step 5: Add the numbers
Therefore, the answer to the equation is in fraction, and decimal; 
Number 19 you are comparing one measurement to another. Since it says 1/2 inch equals 4 ft, we want to find out how many more inches are needed if the given scale was 2/3 = 4 ft. Now lets find a common denominator for both scales stated in inches. We have 2/3 inch and 1/2 inch. Our denominator are the bottom parts of the fraction where we need to find a common factor for the denominator so we can add or subtract fractions. We have a 3 and a 2. You may always use the multiplication between two denominators to find a common factor such as 3 times 2 which equals 6 for both denominators. Now we multiplied the 3 by 2 to get 6 so the top part (numerator needs to be multiplied the the 2 because we changed the bottom part by 2 as well. You should notice that when you reduce your fraction now 4/6 is 2/3. Just a self check example there. As for 1/2 we multiplied a 3 to get 6 for the denominator so we need to multiply the numerator by 3 as well. You now should have 4/6 and 3/6. Since the question asks for how many more inches we need to subtract 4/6 from 3/6 and we get 1/6 inch for our answer.
1 ft = 12 inches
(1 ft)^3 = (12 inches)^3
1 cubic foot = 1728 cubic inches
You'll multiply by the conversion factor (1278 in^3)/(1 ft^3) to convert from cubic feet to cubic inches. Notice how the cubic feet ft^3 unit is at the bottom of the conversion fraction, so that the cubic feet units cancel.
Answer: A) multiply by 1728
The coefficient is 2, the first number being multiplied by a variable will always be the coefficient.
Answer is 553 beasts
Step by step:
Multiply 158 by 3 to get 474
Divide 158 by 2 to get 79
Add 474 with 79 and get 553
