1/2 is half of a whole

whole= 1/1. 2/2, 3/3, 4/4 and so on

1/2 are numbers that can be simplify to halves= 1/2, 2/4, 3/6, 4/8, 5/10 and 1/2 are half of the denominator

The difference between 1 whole and 1/2 is that 1 whole is the whole fraction, and 1/2 is the half of 1 whole. Meaning that 1/2 is the half of 1 whole.

This is the difference between 1/2 and 1 whole.

Hope this helps you :)

Nora's paper airplane flew 9 1/6 feet. That was 2 3/4 feet farther than Max's plane flew. Write and solve an equation to show ho

stepan [7]

Answer:

Max's paper airplane flew $\frac{77}{12}$ feet or $6\frac{5}{12}$ feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

As Nora's paper airplane flew 9 1/6 feet

i.e.

$9\frac{1}{6}=\frac{55}{6}$

Nora's paper was farther than Max's plane flew by = 2 3/4 feet

i.e.

$2\frac{3}{4}=\frac{11}{4}$

Thus the equation to show how far Max's paper airplane flew is:

$\:\:9\frac{1}{6}-2\frac{3}{4}$

$=\frac{55}{6}-\frac{11}{4}$

$\mathrm{Least\:Common\:Multiplier\:of\:}6,\:4:\quad 12$

$\mathrm{Adjust\:Fractions\:based\:on\:the\:LCM}$

$=\frac{110}{12}-\frac{33}{12}$

$\mathrm{Since\:the\:denominators\:are\:equal,\:combine\:the\:fractions}:\quad \frac{a}{c}\pm \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\pm \:b}{c}$

$=\frac{110-33}{12}$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:the\:numbers:}\:110-33=77$

$=\frac{77}{12}$

$=6\frac{5}{12}$

Therefore, Max's paper airplane flew $\frac{77}{12}$ feet or $6\frac{5}{12}$ feet.

Answer:

There is no way it can equal 360 since 60+120+150+75=405? Was it a typo?

A clock has a diameter of 16 inches. how far does the hour hand travel during 5 hours? use 3.14 for pi.

valentina_108 [34]

Distance hour hand travel in 5 hours is 20.94 inches.

<h3>What is a diameter?</h3>

A diameter of a circle is any straight line segment that passes through the center of the circle and has endpoints on the circle in geometry.
It is also known as the circle's longest chord.
Both definitions apply to the diameter of a sphere.

To find the distance hour hand travel in 5 hours:

Let's say the hour hand completed one full round around the clock.
If this was the case, it would have been 2 $\pi$ ×8 inches around.
We know that the hour hand only traveled 5 hours around the clock rather than 12, thus our formula is 2 $\pi$ ×8×( 5/12 ).
