Does the sum of 1/5 + 1/5 equals 2/5 make sense in situations

Mathematics
1 answer:
stiks02 [169]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

It equals 2/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically you ignore the 5 because it stays the same. All you have to add are the numerators. 1+1=2. So it would be 2/5.

<u>A scenario:</u>

2 pizzas cut into 5th's. Everyone ate 4 in each and kept one slice. When you add those 2 together you would be 2 slices.

Amy is eight years older than twice her cousin Alicia’s age. The sum of their ages is less than 32. Let x represent Alicia's age
Vladimir [108]
Assume that the age of Alicia is x and that of Amy is y
Twice the age of Alicia = 27
Eight years older means we will add 8
Therefore, the statement "<span>Amy is eight years older than twice her cousin Alicia’s age" can be represented as follows:
y = 8 + 2x (equation)
The sum of their ages is less than 32 can be represented as:
x + y < 32 which can also be written as y < 32-x (inequality)

A diver descends to a location of -50 1 over 4 meters relative to the surface of the water. He then descends another 10 1 over 2
Yanka [14]

Answer:

-60\frac{3}{4} meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find diver's final location relative to the surface of water we will subtract  10\frac{1}{2} from -50\frac{1}{4} because diver dives away another 10\frac{1}{2} from his previous location of -50\frac{1}{4}.

-50\frac{1}{4} -10\frac{1}{2}

Now we will convert our mixed fraction into improper fraction and then we will find a common denominator.

\frac{-201}{4} -\frac{21}{2} =\frac{-201-42}{4}

=\frac{-243}{4}

Now let us convert our answer in mixed fraction.

=\frac{-243}{4}=[tex]-60\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Therefore, diver's final location relative to the surface of the water is -60\frac{3}{4} meters.
