Answer:Make the denominators the same

Step-by-step explanation:

find the least common denominator

As in find there least common multiple

Then multiply both numerators and denominators to find the common multipl

Example:

2/8 multiples: 8,16,24

5/6 multiples:6,12,18,24

Least common multiple is 24

So 8*3=24

2*3=6

So 2/8=6/24

6*4= 24

5*4=20

So 5/6=20/24

Then you subtract 20/24 by 6/24

Then your done:)

Lauren =l
David=d
Bethany's =x
Amanda =y
l=x+13
d=y+11
lx=2y
<span>(x+13)x=2y
</span>2y=x^2+13x
y= \frac{1}{2}(x^2+13x)
or
y= \frac{x^2}{2}+ \frac{13}{2}x
(x-20)(l-20)=d
<span>(x-20)(x+13-20)=y+11 </span><span>
</span>y+11=(x-20)(x-7)
y+11=x^2-27x+140
y=x^2-27x+129
so I believe its b
