Let's say you had a cake that is cut into 5 equal slices. Then someone eats 2 of those slices. They ate 2/5 of the cake.
Now let's say you have another cake that you cut into 10 equal slices. If someone eats 4 of those ten, then they have eaten 4/10 = 2/5 of the cake.
Check out the diagram below to see a visual of how 4/10 and 2/5 are equivalent fractions.
Going from 2/5 to 4/10 has us multiply top and bottom by 2.
-----------
Similarly, 1/2 = 5/10 after multiplying top and bottom by 10
The original expression 2/5 + 1/2 turns into 4/10 + 5/10
Then you add the numerators to get 4+5 = 9, placing that over the common denominator of 10
<h3>Answer: 9/10</h3>
Answer:
25 and 21 hours respectively
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of hours worked by each welder be x and y respectively.
They worked a total of 46 hours. This means :
x + y = 46 hours.......(I)
Now, given their hourly charges, since we have the total amount of money realized, we can make an equation out of it. This means:
34x + 39y = 1669........(ii)
We then solve both simultaneously. From I, x = 46 -y
We can substitute this into ii
34(46 -y) + 39y = 1669
1564 -34y + 39y = 1669
5y = 1669 - 1564
5y = 105
y = 105/5 = 21
x = 46 - y
x = 46 - 21 = 25 hours
The numbers of hours worked by the welders are 25 and 21 respectively
Angles 6 and 8 add up to equal 180, so 2x - 5 + x + 5 = 180. 3x = 180 so x = 60. Angle 3 is alternate interior to angle 6 which is 2(60) - 5 = 115, so angle 3 is also 115
Answer:
use Pythagoras theorem to find hypotenuse in right angle triangle
100. When rounding to the hundreds place, you must consider the value of the digit in the tens place. If the digit in the tens place is 5 or greater, the digit in the hundreds place increases by 1. If the digit in the tens place is 4 or less the digit in the hundreds place remains the same. In this case, the number in the hundreds place was originally zero.
