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 :)

Let the imaginary part be x.

The complex number will be a+xi

Given:

real part =a

(a+xi)*3=i...............(i)

To find:

imaginary part

Kamila [148]
<span>x y + p = 9 
subtract p on both sides
xy + p - p = 9 - p
simplify
xy = 9 - p
divide both sides by x
xy/x = (9-p)/x
simplify
y = (9 - p)/x

Answer

A bag contains blue marbles and red marbles, 107 in total. The number of blue marbles is 7 more than 4 times the number of red m
Ratling [72]

Answer: red is 13.36

Blue is 93.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the red marbles be y

Based on the question,red is 4times which means 4y

And blue is 7times greater than red which means 7(4y)

Blue + red=107

7(4y) + 4y=107

28y+4y=107

32y=107

Divide both sides by 32

Y=3.34

Red =4y

Red= 4(3.34)

Red =13.36

Blue= 7(4y)

Blue=7(4×3.34)

Blue= 93.625
