Answer: 1/5 is equal to 2/10

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find if the two fractions are equal, less than, or greater than. We have to find the LCD (Least Common Denominator)

In order to find the LCD we have to find the multiples. The multiples of 5 are: 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25. While the multiples for 10 are: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50.

The Least common denominator is: 10.

2/10 stays the same while 1/5 does not.

1 x 2 = 2

---------------

2 x 5 = 10

1/5 turns into 2/10.

Compare 2/10 to 2/10 (1/5)

You can see the are both equal.

Abdul bought a desktop computer and a laptop computer. Before finance charges, the laptop cost $150 more than the desktop. He pa

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

The cost of desktop before finance charge was $1750.

The cost of laptop before finance charge was $1900.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume this is a simple interest scenario.

Let D be the cost of desktop

Let L be the cost of laptop

Given- the laptop cost $150 more than the desktop.

So, $L=D+150$

The total finance charge for 1 year is given by :

$0.07D+0.095L =303$

Substituting the value of L here, we get;

$0.07D+0.095(D+150) =303$

=> $0.07D+0.095D+14.25 =303$

=> $0.165D+14.25 =303$

=> $0.165D=303-14.25$

=> $0.165D=288.75$

D = $1750

As $L=D+150$

So, $L=1750+150=1900$

L = $1900

We can check this :

$0.07(1750)+0.095(1900) =303$

=> $122.50+180.50=303$

=> $303=303$

So, the cost of desktop before finance charge was $1750.

The cost of laptop before finance charge was $1900.
