<span>If you're trying to rewrite 1/2 and 1/4 in terms of the same common denominator, all you have to do is multiply the top and bottom of 1/2 by 4 (which is the denominator of 1/4) and the top and bottom of 1/4 by 2 (which is the denominator of 1/2) to find that 1/2 = (1 x 4) / (2 x 4) = 4/8 and 1/6 = (1 x 2) / (4 x 2) = 2/8.</span>

If you need to work with 1/2 and 1/4 both with the same denominator,
then the easiest one to use is '4'.  The 1/2 is the same thing as  2/4.

Find the sum of (1-1/n) + (1-2/n) + (1 - 3/n)....upto n terms
bija089 [108]

Answer:

<em> (n - 1)/2</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

F = (1 - 1/n) + (1 - 2/n) + (1 - 3/n) + ...(1 - n/n)

  = (1 + 1 ... + 1) - (1/n + 2/n + 3/n + ...n/n)

     (there are n terms of 1)

  = n - (1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n)/n

  = n - [n x (n + 1)/2]/n

  = n - [n x (n + 1)]/[2 x n]

  = n - (n+1)/2

  = (2n - n - 1)/2

  = (n - 1)/2

Hope this helps!

1 2/3 divided by 1 1/4
sashaice [31]

1 2/3 = 5/3

1 1/4 = 5/4       -----------> flip this one to make it multiplication

5/3*4/5 = 5*4 / 3*5 = 20/15 = 4/3 = 1 1/3

The flower shop sold roses and tulips. The number of roses sold was 5 less than twice the number of tulips sold. If the shop sol
LenaWriter [7]

Answer: the number of roses sold is 69 while number of tulips is 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of roses that the flower shop sold.

Let y represent the number of tulips that the flower shop sold.

The number of roses sold was 5 less than twice the number of tulips sold. This means that

x = 2y - 5 - - -- -- - - - - - ;1

If the shop sold 106 flowers in total, it means that

x + y = 106

Substituting x = 106 - y into equation 1, it becomes

106 - y = 2y - 5

3y = 106 + 5 = 111

y = 111/3 = 37

x = 106 - y = 106 - 37

x = 69

Can someone please explain how to solve it ?? ​
Alik [6]

if we look on one side, we already have one measurement. 4 cm. ok, that's the measurement on that side. look to the left now. that other side is also the same length, so we take that number and multiply it be 2 to get

4 \times 2

Wait! we're not done yet. look at the top. do you see the 3? well that's the width for the top of the rectangle. the bottom must be the same to right? so we get

3 \times 2

add both equations and you get

(4 \times 2) + (3 \times 2)

The answer is 14cm! Don't forget to label. ;)
