In order to find this out, we just needed to find out which one has the same smallest fraction

25 / 35. Divided this by 5 and we will get 5/7 >>> smallest fraction

15/21 . Divided this by 3 and we also will get 5/7 >> smallest fraction

So the answer would be : B. 15/21

hope this helps

The sum of Jim's weight and Bob's weight is 180 pounds. If you subtract Jim's weight from Bob's weight, you get half of Bob's we

Furkat [3]

Answer:

120 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use systems of equations to solve this problem. Assuming j is Jim's weight and b is Bob's weight, the equations are:

j + b = 180

b - j = 1/2b

Let's get b - j = 1/2b into standard form (b, then j, then the equal sign, then the constant.)

$b - j = \frac{b}{2}\\\frac{b}{2} - j = 0$

Now we can solve using the process of elimination.

$b + j = 180\\\\\frac{b}{2} - j = 0\\\\b + \frac{b}{2} = 180\\\\b + b \cdot 2 = 180\cdot 2\\3b = 360\\b = 120$

Now we know how much Bob weighs, for fun, let's find Jim's weight by substituting into the equation.

$120 + j = 180\\j = 180-120\\j = 60$

So Bob weighs 120 pounds and Jim weight 60 pounds.

Hope this helped!
