Which number line shows the correct placement of 20%, 1/3, and 2/3?

BigorU [14]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

20%

When we change percent into fraction we will divide the percent by 100

$\frac{20}{100}=\frac{1}{5}$

$\frac{1}{3}$

$\frac{2}{3}$

We have to find the line which shows the correct placement of given numbers.

Lcm(3,5)=15

$\frac{1\times 3}{5\times 3}=\frac{3}{15}$

$\frac{1\times 5}{3\times 5}=\frac{5}{15}$

$\frac{2\times 5}{3\times 5}=\frac{10}{15}$

What is bigger 1/3 or 3/5

raketka [301]

$Method\ 1:$

$\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1\cdot5}{3\cdot5}=\dfrac{5}{15}\\\\\dfrac{3}{5}=\dfrac{3\cdot3}{5\cdot3}=\dfrac{9}{15}\\\\\dfrac{3}{15} < \dfrac{9}{15}\ therefore\ \dfrac{3}{5}\ is\ bigger$

$Method\ 2:$

$\dfrac{1}{3} < \dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{1.5}{3}\\\\\dfrac{3}{5} > \dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{2.5}{5}\\\\therefore\ \dfrac{3}{5}\ is\ bigger$

Fran works due north of home. Her husband Juan works due east. By the time Fran is 5 miles from home the distance between them i

lana66690 [7]

If I understood the question correctly, let's set the coordinates (5,5) from the origin (the home). To find the longer side of the triangle, (the distance between the husband and wife), we use A squared * B squared= C squared. 25*25=625, the square root of 625 is 25. So the distance between the husband and wife would be 25 miles. Therefore, one mile less than their distance would be 24 miles. To answer your question, <em><u>Juan is 24 miles from home.</u></em>
