Write 5/6 in the lowest terms

2 answers:

8 0

Fraction can't be reduced (simplified) any further - irreducible.
5/6 = 0.833333333333;
:: Result written as ::
a proper fraction: 5/6
and a decimal number: 0.833333333333

Explanations below.

To reduce a fraction, divide both its numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, GCF.
Step 1. Calculate the greatest (highest) common factor (divisor).

Integer numbers prime factorization:
5 is a prime number, it cannot be prime factorized;
6 = 2 * 3;
Take all the common prime factors, by the lowest powers.
But the two numbers have no common prime factors.
Greatest (highest) common factor (divisor), gcf, gcd:
gcf, gcd (5; 6) = 1;
coprime numbers (relatively prime);

Fraction's numerator and denominator are coprime numbers (no common prime factors). Fraction cannot be reduced (simplified) - irreducible.
Step 2: Rewrite the end result:

5 : 6 = 0.833333333333 as a decimal number.

Final answer
:: written in two ways ::
As a proper fraction:
5/6 = 5/6
As a decimal number:
5/6 = 0.833333333333

5 don't have lowest term only the 6 and it's 2 but if a number like 5 doesn't change so 6 doesn't change if not then divide 5 to 6.

I. Daska is situated at a distance of 15 miles from both Gujranwala and Sialkot. A bus travels from Gujranwala to Daska at an av

son4ous [18]

Answer:

The average speed of the entire trip is 8.5 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = Total Distance / Total Time

So we have to find the total distance and the total time taken .

1) From Gujranwala to Daska

speed= 25miles/hour distance = 15miles

Time taken = distance / speed

= 15/25= 0.6 hours

2) From Daska to Sialkot

speed= 40miles/hour distance = 15miles

Time taken = distance / speed

= 40/15= 2.67 hours

3 ) From Sialkot to Daska

speed= 30miles/hour distance = 15miles

Time taken = distance / speed

= 30/15= 2 hours

The total distance traveled to three places is = 15+ 15+15= 45miles

The Total time taken is = 0.6+ 2.67+ 2= 5.267=5.3 hours

Speed = Total Distance / Total Time

Speed= 45/ 5.3

= 8.49=8.5 miles per hour

The average speed of the entire trip is 8.5 miles per hour.

The sum of twelve and a number is no greater than sum of twice the number and -8

Leona [35]

1. Write as an algebraic equation:

12 + n ≤ 2n - 8

2. Solve for n.

12 + n - 12 ≤ 2n - 8 - 12

n ≤ 2n - 20

n - 2n ≤ 2n - 20 - 2n

-n ≤ -20

Multiply both sides by -1 (this means you must flip the inequality sign).

n ≥ 20

FINAL ANSWER: n ≥ 20

Hope this helps! Feel free to ask for clarification.

Find the value of z in the isosceles triangle shown below.<br> V20<br> V20<br> 8

Andrews [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

use Pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c²

where a = x

b = 8/2 = 4

c = √20

plugin values into the formula:

x² + 4² = (√20)²

x² + 16 = 20

x² = 20 - 16

x = √4

x = 2

Determine whether or not the given procedure results in a binomial distribution. If not, identify which condition is not met. Su

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

The answer is "No, There are more than two possible outcomes on each trial of the experiment ".

Step-by-step explanation:

When various ice cream products are known. This might surpass 2 brands or more. Thus the number of different results varies considerably.

BINOMIAL DISTRIBUTION:

An investigation with a set set of individual tests, each only with two possible results.

Four conditions are met by the binomial experiment

The set of indicators is fixed.
Each attempt is autonomous.
2 potential results exist only.
In each and every test, the probability of each outcome remains unchanged.

Please help with this

ioda

Answer:

Some have multiple choices. See below for additional comments.

a) iii
b) i
c) v
d) ii
e) iv

Step-by-step explanation:

i -- slope-intercept form. Shows the slope and the y-intercept

ii -- slope-intercept form. Shows the slope and the x-intercept

iii -- intercept form. Shows both the x- and y-intercepts

iv -- standard form.

v -- point-slope form. Shows the slope and one point on the line.

vi -- another point-slope form. Shows the slope and one point on the line

With the above forms in mind, ...

a) both intercepts are best shown in form iii

b) the slope is shown in forms i, ii, v, vi. Form i is the most uncluttered.

c) points are shown in forms v and vi. Form v may be least confusing.

d) the sign can be readily determined in form ii.

e) testing the given point is easily done using forms ii and iv. Form iv may be the best for this.

_____

<em>Additional comments</em>

Since each of these forms of the equation has utility in different situations, it can be worthwhile to learn the different forms. For example, I like the standard form for making perpendicular lines, though any of the "slope-" forms can be useful for that, too. The useful form to start with will be the one that best relates to the information given. (For two points given, there is a "2-point form" not shown here.)
