Answer: Find the lowest common denominator of the 2 denominators

Step-by-step explanation:

The common in both denominator is 15.

3: 3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27,30

5: 5,10,15,20,25.30,35,40,43,50

Since 5x3 is 15, 1/5 x 3/3= 3/15

Since 3x5 is 15, 2/3 x 5/5= 10/15

3/15 is equivalent to 1/5 and 10/15 is equivalent to 2/3.

3/15 + 10/15 is equal to 13/15

13/15 can't be simplified because they are both odd numbers and they have less than 2 factors.

Hope this helped! Have a nice day! :D

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

(a) x = 30°

(b) mRS =  30°

mST =  120°

mTU  = 120°

mUR = 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) In the picture attached, the diagram is shown.

Given that m arc RS = x, from the ratios:

m arc ST = 4x

m arc TU = 4x

m arc UR = 3x

The addition of the four arcs must be equal to 360°, then:

x + 4x + 4x + 3x = 360°

12x = 360°

x = 360°/12 = 30°

(b) m arc RS = x = 30°

m arc ST = 4x = 4*30° = 120°

m arc TU = 4x = 4*30° = 120°

m arc UR = 3x = 3*30° = 90°
