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.

Answer:

$MOE_{95} = 1.192\cdot MOE_{90}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error is computed using the formula:

$MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

The critical of <em>z</em> for 95% confidence level and 90% confidence level are:

$z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96\\\\z_{0.10/2}=z_{0.05}=1.645$

*Use a <em>z</em>-table.

The sample size is n = 44.

Compare the MOE for 95% confidence level and 90% confidence level as follows:

$\frac{MOE_{95}}{MOE_{90}}=\frac{1.96\times (15/\sqrt{44})}{1.645\times (15/\sqrt{44})}$

$\frac{MOE_{95}}{MOE_{90}}=\frac{1.96}{1.645}\\\\\frac{MOE_{95}}{MOE_{90}}=1.192\\\\MOE_{95} = 1.192\cdot MOE_{90}$

The triangles are similar by:

igomit [66]

The triangles are similar by the SSS (side-side-side) similarity theorem because the sides of the two triangles are in proportion (5/15 = 3/9 = 4/12)

Hope this helps =)

Line segments that have the same length are called similar segments. True or false?

guajiro [1.7K]

The statement that line segments that have the same length are called similar segments is false

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

The statement is given as:

Line segments that have the same length are called similar segments.

As a general rule:

Line segments that have the same length are similar segments.

However, line segments that have the same length are not called similar segments

Instead, line segments that have the same length are called congruent lines

This means that the the statement that line segments that have the same length are called similar segments is false

Hence, the statement that line segments that have the same length are called similar segments is false
