Lcd means least common denomenators
it is normally used to combine fractions with differnt denomenators

I can show 2 disproofs

so
they can be equal
conside
3/4 and 5/8
lcd is 8, 8>8 is false
not reasnable

they can be less if they arenot simplified
example
4/8 and 24/16
lcd is 4

not reasonable

It is not reasonable.
The LCD can be less than the denominators if the fractions are not in simplest form but the LCD can be equal to one of the fractions even if they are in simplest form, for example:
3/4 and 1/2

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

Num. 2: A = 25, Num. 3 = 63, Num. 4 = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll help with as many as I can, so a few of them I won't be able too answer. You should re-post those later. Good luck, hope this helps.

For number 2:

First, turn the triangle into a rectangle by cutting it in half and attaching it to the other half so it forms a rectangle.

Since you cut the triangle in half, you also have to split 5 in half, so the bottom length is now 2.5.

Now, simply multiply 2.5 by 10, and you have the area for number 2.

The area for number 2 is 25.

For number 3:

This one is much easier. Just think of the shape as a normal square that has been tipped to the side. That means that you would solve for area the same way: 9 x 7, which means that the area for number 3 is 63.

For number 4:

This one is also easy. Simply cut, and paste. Now the right side is 10, and the top side is 8. Multiply, and the area will be 80 m.

Please re-post 1 and 5, as I am not able to solve them. Sorry this answer took so long!
