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 :)

SpyIntel [72]
Answer

She used 6/15 litres of oil in January

Explanation

We are given that, in January, she used 3/5 of the amount of oil she used in February.

We are also given that, she used 2/3 litres of oil in February.

Therefore, amount of oil used in January is:

3/5 • 2/3 = 6/15

Can someone please help me, Thanks - Alyssa T.

A=LW
192=(13+x)((9+x)
192=117+22x+x^2 (subtract 192 from both sides)
x^2+22x-75+0 (factor)
(x+25)(x-3)=0
so x=-25 or 3
Check work
since we are adding x it can only be the positive solution so x=3 so the new dimensions are:
L=13+3=16m
W=9+3=12
check: 16*12=192 so the answer is correct hope this helped
