Shortest to tallest: Plant A, Plant B, Plant C.
Given:
Plant A 1/3 inch tall
Plant B 3/4 inch tall
Plant C 5/6 inch tall
Order from shortest to tallest.
First we need to get the least common multiple of the three fractions.
Multiple of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12
Multiple of 4: 4, 8, 12, 16
Multiple of 6: 6, 12, 18
Their least common multiple is 12. We need to multiply each fraction by the number that will give the product of 12 to the denominator.
Plant A: 1/3 * 4/4 = 4/12
Plant B: 3/4 * 3/3 = 9/12
Plant C: 5/6 * 2/2 = 10/12
Since the denominator is common, we will use the numerator as basis in ordering the plants from shortest to tallest.
4 is less than 9 and 9 is less than 10.
so, Plant A is the shortest, Plant B is the medium height, and Plant C is the tallest.
Im not sure what you are asking for
Answer:
6666666.667 equals x
Step-by-step explanation:
take the 3 to the other side- doin that is became positive
them you divide to find x
You can't find the exact value of y, but you can find y in terms of x!
Adding 3y and subtracting 8 from both sides, we have:
2x-3y+3y-8=8+3y-8
2x-8=3y
Dividing by 3, we see that y=(2x-8)/3. This is the simplest form we can find for y.
