Answer:

8/5 or 1 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

2 2/5 = 12/5

1 1/2 = 3/2

Now that we have fractions that are easier to divide, one must understand that the opposite of dividing is multiplying. So if you multiply 12/5 by the reciprocal* of 3/2, which would be 2/3, you would get your answer so...

12 3 12 2 24 8 3

— ÷ — = — × — = — = — <em>or</em> 1 —

5 2 5 3 15 5 5

*the reciprocal is the opposite of the fraction you have. So the denominator would become the numerator, and vise versa.

Which expression is equivalent to 64y18 – 1000z6?

natta225 [31]

Answer:

$(4y^{6})^{3}-(10z^{2})^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$64y^{18}-1000z^{6}$

we know that

$64=4^{3}$

$y^{18}=(y^{6})^{3}$

$1000=10^{3}$

$z^{6}=(z^{2})^{3}$

Substitute the values in the expression

$(4^{3})((y^{6})^{3})-(10^{3})((z^{2})^{3})$

$(4y^{6})^{3}-(10z^{2})^{3}$

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

She purchased the item at a price of Rs 1,406.

Step-by-step explanation:

5% of discount:

This means that she paid 100% - 5% = 95% = 0.95 of the original price of x, that is, 0.95x, and 0.05x was the discount.

Original price:

She got the discount amount of Rs 74.

74 is 5% of the original price, that is:

$0.05x = 74$

$x = \frac{74}{0.05}$

$x = 1480$

What price she purchased:

74 subtracted from the original price, that is, x - 74. So 1480 - 74 = 1406.

She purchased the item at a price of Rs 1,406.
