Compare fractions using benchmarks

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vadim26 [7]3 years ago
7 0
You can compare fractions by using the benchmark fraction of 1/2. To use this in order to make comparisons, you will need to look carefully at what the numerator and The denominators are in a fraction. If the top number, the numerator is less than half of the denominator, then the fraction would be less then the benchmark 1/2. If the numerator is more than half of the denominator then the fraction would be more than the benchmark 1/2. For example, 3/4 is more than 1/2 because the numerator of three is more than half of the denominator 4.

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

b) 25/100 x 79

= 19.75

= 79 - 19.75

= $59.25 (before tax)

7/100 x 59.25

= 414.75/100

= 4.15

= 59.25 + 4.15

= $63.4 (after adding tax)

First we have to take out the percentage of discount and minus it from the total cost . To find the discounted price with tax, we have to take out the percentage of the tax from the discounted amount and add it to the discounted amount to get the total cost.

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

sides =8 cm, 17 cm and 15 cm

Area of triangle by Hero's Formula,

S=a+b+c/2

S=17+8+15/2

S=40/2

S=20

A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}

A=\sqrt{20(20-17)(20-8)(20-15)}

A=\sqrt{(20)(3)(12)(5)}

A=\sqrt{3600}

A=60 cm^{2}
