Answer: the dwarf tree grew by 3 inches.
the semi dwarf tree grew by 6 inches.
the full size tree grew by 18 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent how much the semi-dwarf lemon tree grew.
Last month, a dwarf lemon tree grew half as much as a semi-dwarf lemon tree. This means that the amount by which the dwarf lemon tree grew is expressed as x/2
A full-size lemon tree grew three times as much as the semi-dwarf lemon. This means that the amount by which the full-size lemon tree grew is expressed as 3x
Together, the three trees grew 27 inches. This means that
x/2 + x + 3x = 27
Cross multiplying by 2, it becomes
x + 2x + 6x = 54
9x = 54
x = 54/9
x = 6 inches
The dwarf tree grew by 6/2 = 3 inches.
The full-size lemon tree grew by 3 × 6 = 18 inches
The answer is 5 5/6 simplified to the max.
rewrite the equation with separated parts
-3 1/2 - 2 1/3
-3 - 2 = -5
-1/2 - 1/3? u need to find the LEAST common denominator
-3/6 - 2/6 = -5/6
how did I get 6?
Rewriting input as fractions if necessary:
1/2, 1/3
For the denominators (2, 3) the least common multiple (LCM) is 6.
Therefore, the least common denominator (LCD) is 6.
Now lastly combine them total and its -5 - 5/6 = -5 5/6.
