This question is easy once you understand. So when adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing with whole numbers you turn it into a fraction. So 12 is going to become 12/1. 8 1/8 is a mixed number so we have to turn it into an incomplete fraction. Here is how you do it. Multiply the denominator by the who number. So 8 x 8 = 64. Then you add your product to the numerator, which will make it 65. Then after this you keep your denominator giving you 65/8. Now we have to find the common denominator by finding the LCM. So the LCM is 8. Next we divide the old denominator by the new denominator. So 1 goes into 8, 8 times. And next 8 x the numerator. so 8 x 12 = 96. We do the same to the other side. Now we have 96/8 - 65/8 = 31/8. Finally we make this a mixed number. So 31 divided by 8. So you should get 3 7/8.

I hope this helps! :)

What is the perimeter of a rectangular building that is 80 feet wide and 140 feet deep?

EastWind [94]

Answer:

= 440 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is found by adding up all the sides. We use the formula

P =2(l+w)

where l is the length and w is the width

The length is 140 and the width is 80

P = 2(140+80)

= 2(220)

= 440 ft

HELP ME I'M STUCK!!!! PLEASE AND THANK YOU!!!!

Answer: 1/8

Step-by-step explanation: The sample space are all of the different outcomes an event can lead to. The H and T combinations at the bottom are all of the different outcomes. I think the probability of getting 3 tails for the coins (or TTT) is 1/8. This is because there are 24 total outcomes (HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT). There is 3/24 TTTs (also, 1/8 if you count the groups/simplify). Therefore, it is 1/8. Hope this helps!

Yi forgot two factors of 63, which are 3 and 21.

This would make the greatest common factor 21.
